plum tart

Stone-fruit dessert

A plum tart is a baked pastry with fresh or preserved plums arranged over a filling, typically custard or frangipane, in a shallow crust.

The fruit caramelizes during baking, concentrating its sweetness.

Plum tarts are common in European baking traditions, especially French and German: She made a plum tart with fruit from the backyard tree.
