How to Make Plum Tart

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the almond paste between two sheets of parchment paper to an 8-inch diameter circle.
  3. Carefully unroll the pie crust onto a baking sheet.
  4. Peel off the top sheet of parchment paper from the almond paste and carefully place it in the center of the pie crust.
  5. Arrange the sliced plums over the almond paste in a circular pattern, starting from the center and working your way outwards.
  6. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, nutmeg, and sliced almonds. Sprinkle evenly over the plums.
  7. Brush the edges of the pie crust with melted butter (optional) for extra browning.
  8. Fold the edges of the pie dough over the plums, crimping the dough to seal.
  9. Bake for 15 minutes at 450°F (232°C), then reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the plums are tender.
  10. Let the tart cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before serving.
  11. Serve warm or at room temperature. Delicious served with cinnamon ice cream!
