Ingredients

Servings: 12
  • 150 g + some flour
  • 125 g + 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 125 g ground hazelnuts
  • 1 Egg (Gr. M)
  • 125 g cold butter
  • 600 g Prunes
  • 7-10 Tbsp Icing sugar
  • 7-10 Tbsp Cling film
  • baking paper

Directions

  1. 1

    For the short pastry, mix 150 g flour, 125 g sugar and nuts. Add egg, butter in pieces and possibly 1 tbsp. cold water. Knead first with the dough hooks of the mixer, then briefly with your hands to a smooth dough.

  2. 2

    Wrap in cling film and chill for about 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile wash the plums, cut them in half and stone them. Put 1 plum (about 100 g) aside. Cut the remaining plums into thin slices. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Preheat the oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/circulating air: 175 °C/gas: see

  4. 4

    Roll out the dough on a floured work surface until round (approx. 28 cm Ø; see tip below). Place on the baking tray. Place the plums in a fan-shaped circle on the base, leaving a 1.5 cm wide edge.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle plums with 1 tablespoon of sugar. Fold the edge of the dough over the plums and press lightly. Bake in a hot oven for 15-20 minutes.

  6. 6

    Puree the rest of the plum with 2 tbsp. sugar. Bring to the boil with 2 tbsp. water in a small pot and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring continuously. Remove the tart from the oven and brush the plums with the puree.

  7. 7

    Continue baking at the same temperature for about 10 minutes. Remove and let cool. Dust with icing sugar. Tastes lukewarm or cold. Goes well with nut ice cream.
