    1 tbsp granulated sugar
    1/4 tsp salt
    1/2 cup Margarine
    3 tbsp cold water

    FILLING:

    1/4 cup lemon juice

    Recipe



    CRUST:
    COMBINE flour, sugar and salt in mixing bowl. Cut in margarine until crumbly. Add water, mixing with fork until blended. Gather dough into a smooth ball. Press dough evenly into bottom and sides of 9" (23 cm) fluted flan pan. Prick with fork. Chill 30 minutes. Line with a circle of aluminum foil. BAKE in centre of oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake 12-15 minutes longer, or until light golden. If cracks form, press warm crust gently to seal. Cool on wire rack.

    FILLING:
    BEAT first 5 ingredients together in saucepan. Add margarine. Cook on medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Spread evenly in baked crust.

    CUT each nectarine in 3/4" (2 cm) slices. Arrange attractively over filling. Sprinkle with 1 tbsp (15 mL) sugar.

    BAKE at 350°F (180°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until fruit is tender-crisp. Cool. Brush jam over flan to glaze before serving.

    VARIATION: Plums also look and taste great.
