I developed these as a way to enjoy the seasonal plums in Michigan, shares Nicole Filizetti of Jacksonville, Florida. The red plums shine like jewels in creamy custard when they emerge from the oven. Ingredients:
1/2 cup plus 2 teaspoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour, divided |
4 teaspoons sugar |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/4 cup cold butter, cubed |
2 medium plums, sliced |
1 egg yolk |
1 tablespoon 2% milk |
4 teaspoons brown sugar, divided |
vanilla ice cream |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup flour, sugar and salt; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of two 4-in. fluted tart pans with removable bottoms. Bake at 325° for 10 minutes or until set.
2. Arrange plum slices in crusts. In another bowl, combine the egg yolk, milk, 2 teaspoons brown sugar and remaining flour. Spoon over plums; sprinkle with remaining brown sugar.
3. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Serve with ice cream. Yield: 2 servings.
