Delicious plum crostatas with flaky pastry, perfect for dessert or afternoon tea. Top with vanilla ice cream or double cream for a delightful treat. Make extra for seconds!
Ingredients:
  • 185g plain flour
  • 24.00 gm icing sugar mixture
  • 100g butter, chilled, chopped
  • 30.00 gm chilled water
  • 6 mixed plums, stoned, cut into wedges
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 100g butter, softened
  • 1 Free Range Egg
  • 120g almond meal
  • 40g plain flour
  • 20.00 ml orange-flavoured liqueur (optional)
Instructions:
  • Add the flour, icing sugar, and butter to a food processor and pulse until the mixture looks like fine breadcrumbs.
  • Pour in the water and pulse until dough forms. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently until it becomes smooth. Shape it into a disc, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C. Beat butter and sugar until pale and creamy using an electric mixer. Incorporate the egg until well combined. Mix in almond meal, flour, and optional liqueur until thoroughly combined.
  • Prepare a baking tray with a sheet of baking paper. Divide the pastry into 4 equal parts. Roll out each portion into a 16cm circle on a lightly floured surface. Transfer the circles to the tray. Spread the frangipane filling on each circle, leaving a 2cm edge.
  • In a bowl, mix together the plum, sugar, and vanilla. Spread over the frangipane filling. Fold in the pastry edges, pleating as you go. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and the filling is cooked through. Serve warm or at room temperature.
