Only 5 ingredients

  • Pure butter puff pastry : take it quality, thick and pure butter above all.
  • Mirabelle plums : choose ripe fruits, they will be more tender and sweet.
  • Almond powder : or hazelnut powder, this is used to absorb the fruit juice during cooking to avoid soaking the dough.
  • Granulated sugar : to lightly caramelize the fruit, add a veil of sugar before cooking.
  • Soft butter : diced, it gives a nice caramelization to the fruits.

PS: find the detailed quantities in the recipe at the bottom of the page.

My tips for making this pie a success

  • Don't skimp on the quality of ingredients : you need a good puff pastry and good ripe fruit so that the flavor is there when you taste the mirabelle plum tart…
  • To opt for a removable mold : this guarantees easy demoulding. If you want to serve the pie in its mold, then a classic mold will suffice.
  • For a very fruity and attractively presented tart, I recommend placing the side-by-side tight half Mirabelle plums. They will also hold up well when cooked.

Mirabelle Express Tart

The quick version of the mirabelle plum tart… A puff pastry, a little ground almonds and above all lots of fruit!
Prep time15 minutes
Cook time40 minutes
Total55 minutes
Recipe type: Dessert
Cuisine: French
Keyword: Tarte
Yield: 6 people

Ingredients:

  • 1 pure butter puff pastry quality
  • 1kg plums rather ripe, they will be very tasty and sweet
  • 60 g almond or hazelnut powder
  • 30 g granulated sugar to increase or decrease according to the level of ripening of the fruits
  • 20 g unsalted butter

Instructions:

  • Preheat the oven to 180 ° traditional heat.
  • Butter a 26cm tart tin with a removable bottom. You can also take a pie ring.
  • Place the puff pastry in the mold, filling the edges well. Cut off the excess with a knife. Prick the bottom of the pie a little with a fork.
  • Sprinkle the bottom of the tart with ground almonds.
  • Separately, wash and cut the Mirabelle plums in half. Remove the pits. Arrange the half-mirabelle plums side by side, making circles all over the pie (see my photos).
  • Sprinkle with powdered sugar then add the cubes of butter everywhere. This allows the fruit to caramelize during cooking.
  • Bake for 30/40 minutes (depending on your oven and the ripening of your fruit): the edges of the pie should be golden and the fruit cooked. Leave to cool in the pan on a wire rack out of the oven then unmold the tart.

Notes:

This mirabelle plum tart can be kept for 2 days at room temperature (in a bell) or up to 4 days in the refrigerator.
