Frangipane Style Plum Tart Recipe
Add Step-by-Step Photos

Lovely and easy fruit tart, with fresh plums nested on a delicate almond cream (Frangipane). Delicious and so pretty... ideal for using red plums, although you can use any kind you like. Better when the fruit is ripe but not bland.

Ingredients
  • 1 uncooked pie pastry shell
  • 1 1/4 cups ground toasted almond
  • 2 tablespoons fructose (my option) OR honey OR agave syrup
  • 1 egg
  • 6 tablespoons whole yogurt
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla OR almond extract (optional)
  • 7 ripe red plums (or the kind you like best)
  • 2 Tbsp firmly packed brown sugar (for sprinkling on plums)
  • juice from 1 lemon

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake for 15 minutes, until lightly golden. Set aside.
  2. Combine ground almonds, sugar, egg, yogurt and flavoring if using, and mix.
  3. Rinse and dry the plums and cut them in halves, discarding the stones.
  4. Spread almond cream evenly over the partially baked tart shell, and arrange the plums on top in a circular pattern starting from the outside.
  5. Spread brown sugar on top of the plums and drizzle with the lemon juice.
  6. Bake for 30 minutes or until the plums are caramelized and bubbly and the walnut cream is set. If the side of the tart gets too brown, cover with foil.
  7. Cool on a wire rack. If it is not eaten the same day of baking, cover with plastic or aluminum foil and keep refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving.

This looks really beautiful! I will have to try it. I made your rustic apple tart for a girls breakfast get together and it really got the raves! Thanks for all your healthy and delicious recipes Inmaculada. Marcia


Absolutely gorgeous recipe, Inmaculada. I love your pictures - so wonderful. I can't wait to give it a try. Thanks so much!! ~Vickie


This looks fantastic!


Amazingly simple! I really like that it uses yogurt instead of cream too. The first plums of the season are going into this. I can't wait!


Beautiful, delicious, and healthy! I'm looking forward to making this when plums are in season. Thanks for sharing this lovely recipe.
