PLUM PERFECT

I found this recipe at Cannelle et Vanille. Aran is a gifted person who always has amazing pastries to share. She is a usual stop for me. Always something pretty and captivating at her site. These were so easy, they were ready very quickly and they disappeared rather quickly as well. If you haven't seen her site, you must check it out!

Plum and Almond Tart
Cannelle et Vanille, click the recipe and it will bring you to her site.

150 grams egg whites
155 grams sugar
70 grams flour
65 grams almond flour
190 grams unsalted butter, melted and cooled


Whisk together the egg whites and the sugar until combined. Add the flour and almond flour and mix. Slowly add the melted and cooled butter until it is incorporated. Refrigerate the batter overnight. Place the batter in a pastry bag and pipe it into tart pan. Fill the pan about half way up and top with halved plums.

Bake in a 350F oven until golden brown, which will take approximately 30 minutes, but it depends on the pan.
