Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
• 1 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crust dough
• ½ teaspoon unsalted butter, or as needed
• 10 medium plums, or more as needed, halved and pitted
• ¼ cup white sugar, or more to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch tart pan with butter.

Step 2

Roll out the pie dough and press crust into the prepared pan.

Step 3

Arrange plums snugly, cut-sides down, on the crust. Sprinkle with cinnamon, then sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar, or up to 1/2 cup depending on the sweetness of the plums.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until the tops of the plums are slightly browned and the juices are bubbling, 15 to 20 minutes.

Step 5

Remove from the oven and let rest until the juices have set, 10 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle with a bit of powdered sugar, cut, and serve.
