How To Make Plum Almond Pastry
A delicious pastry filled with juicy plums and a sweet almond filling.
Serves:
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
- 1/4 cup ice water
- 4 plums, pitted and sliced
- 1/4 cup almond meal
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 2 tbsp sliced almonds
Instructions
-
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Slowly add the ice water, mixing with a fork until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch tart pan. Transfer the dough to the pan, pressing it into the edges.
-
In a small bowl, mix together the almond meal and honey. Spread the almond mixture evenly over the dough.
-
Arrange the plum slices on top of the almond mixture.
-
Brush the beaten egg over the edges of the pastry. Sprinkle the sliced almonds over the top of the plums.
-
Bake for 35 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the plums are tender.
-
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
