Prune Tart

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Stone the prunes and place them in a deep dish.

  2. Add brown sugar to the prunes.

  3. Stew the stones in a little water to extract flavor.

  4. Cover the dish with light pastry.

  5. Bake in a moderate oven at 350°F (175°C) until golden.
