Ingredients
750g ripe plums
2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
20g icing sugar
500g all-butter shortcrust pastry
30g flaked almonds
FRANGIPANE
200g unsalted butter (at room temperature)
200g golden caster sugar
4 large free-range eggs
2 oranges
2 lemons
2 teaspoon almond extract
200g ground almonds
40g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
LIMONCELLO ICING
75g icing sugar
25ml limoncello
Method
- Halve and destone the plums and place in a bowl. Strip in the rosemary leaves, sprinkle with the icing sugar and leave to macerate for half an hour.
- Meanwhile, make the frangipane. Cream the butter and caster sugar together, then beat in the eggs. Finely grate in the zest from the oranges and lemons and add the almond extract. Fold through the ground almonds and flour.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4.
- Roll out the pastry on a floured surface to fit a 25cm x 35cm lined baking tray, going up the sides slightly. Bake in the middle of the oven for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and lower the heat to 160°C/310°F/gas 2½.
- Spread the frangipane over the pastry and stud with the plums and flaked almonds. Bake for 30 minutes, then allow to cool slightly.
- Combine the icing ingredients in a bowl and mix until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled tart, then serve.
