    List of Ingredients




    Pastry:
    2 cups plus 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
    3/4 cup butter, cut in small pieces
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 egg

    Filling:
    2 lbs. prune plums or cherries
    1 teaspoon fresh grated lemon peel
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    6 tablespoons sugar
    Whipped cream or yogurt, if desired

    To make pastry, sift flour into a large bowl. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in butter until evenly distributed and mixture resembles breadcrumbs. With a fork, lightly mix in sugar and egg to make a dough. Press dough in the bottom and 1 inch up the sides of a buttered 9-inch spring form pan or tart pan with removable bottom. To make filling, wash and halve plums or cherries; remove pits. Add cinnamon, lemon juice and sugar. Preheat oven to 400 F degrees (205 C degrees). Pierce sides and bottom of pastry shell all over with a fork. Arrange plums in a rosette pattern skin side up and slightly overlapping, to fill pastry shell. Bake 30-35 minutes. Cool slightly in tin. Remove from tin and sprinkle with sugar. Serve with whipped cream if desired.
