Open-Faced Plum Tart

July 29, 2009



I've been watching Sunny Anderson on Food Network for a while now.. and this is the first recipe that I've tried from her. The tart was so easy and very good!!! Try it! Make sure you get sweet plums :)

Cook Time: 45mins - Level: Easy - Yield: 6 to 8 Servings

Ingredients

  • 1 (9-inch) store-bought round pie crust
  • 1/4 cup fig jam
  • 1 pound plums cut into 1/4-inch wedges
  • 1 egg plus 1 tablespoon water, whisked for egg wash
  • 1/2 cup raw cane sugar

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Remove pie crust from refrigerator 10 minutes before using to soften slightly. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Unfold pie crust onto baking sheet. Spread fig jam on crust leaving a 2-inch border around the edges. Place plums on top of the jam. Fold edges over leaving the center exposed and press slightly to seal. Brush outside of the pie dough with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.

Bake until dough is cooked through and golden, about 45 minutes.

Serve warm with ice cream.

hey thanks for watchin! i agree about the plums, i've had some sour ones. so a pre-cooking taste test isn't a bad idea. then adjust with sugar, or i'd soak them in sugar water. well, i just wanted to stop and say hi and thanks for the support! happy cooking! btw, my new fave wine is a red fizzy rosa regale ... omg so good!
