Pluot Tart

4 from 1 ratings

This tart is the perfect dessert for an intimate date night. When plated with a scoop of creamy, vanilla ice cream or a generous dollop of whipped cream, it can easily serve 4-5 people. The sweet crust contrasts nicely with the tang of the pluots. The folded crust makes the tart look elegant and photo-worthy — no matter how inexperienced the baker is!

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 stick unsalted butter
2 tablespoon water
2 cup sliced pluots
3 tablespoon light brown sugar, plus more for the crust
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions

Mix the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Add the water to the mixture. Knead the mixture until a ball of dough forms. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Roll out the dough into a large circle, and place on the baking pan.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Mix the pluots, sugar, flour, and cinnamon in a bowl. Place the mixture in the center of the dough. Pull the edges of the dough over the filling, leaving a circle of the fruit exposed. Sprinkle the crust with sugar. Bake for 40 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
