Method
step 1
Preheat the oven 150 degrees centigrade. Cream butter and sugar together.step 2
Add egg and mix. Add the flour mixing as you go.step 3
Once mixed together place the pastry in a lined baking tray (23.5 x 30cm (9¼” x 12”)). The mixture may seem crumbly, this is ok, compact the mixture by pushing it into the tray- it should all merge together.step 4
Cut the plums into half and place the halves in rows along the pastry. Leave about 5mm of pastry showing between each half. Press gently into the mix.step 5
Place dabs of butter across the top and sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over the tart.step 6
Place in oven for 25-30 mins until golden brown and the plums are wrinkled in texture.step 7
Best eaten hot with ice cream, although delicious cold.
