i had a lot of ripe plums so i made this. it was soo easy. do not over do it with the jam/jelly
Anita Dominguez
This is so easy and excellent! We all loved it with plums, then I made it with my granddaughter, using fresh apples, and adding cinnamon, so pretty and impressive!

I made this with nectarines. Sooooo amazing. If your fruit is a little tart, toss the fruit with some of the sugar. I added 2 tablespoons of flour so it wasn’t too runny. Still had beautiful juices. Make sure you follow the video and really add the sugar on top for a crispy crunchy top. I couldn’t find fig jam, so I found a beautiful cherry jam. Making it a second time in two weeks. Don’t forget ice cream on the top!

My go to recipe for a quick but delicious dessert. I always sub peaches for plums and peach preserves for fig jam. So good! Got to make this wonderful recipe for my sweet Grandma before she passed away. She was a phenomenal cook and wasn’t easily impressed and she loved this.

I made this recipe exactly as written with just one exception: I used 1 tablespoon Minute Tapioca, a natural thickener of fruit. My plums were delicious, didn’t need extra sugar because they were sweet to begin with.
I sprinkled the eggwashed crust with granulated sugar, just a light dusting.
The pie was perfect.

Why are there no reviews regarding the amount of sugar “sprinkled” on top of this thing? Half a cup?? and “sprinkle”? Might as well just dump it all on top. I don’t get it. I’ve only made a few pies in my entire life and this is my first tart…but it just seems like a crapload of sugar to “sprinkle” on just before baking. It would make much more sense to mix some of the sugar in with the fruit before placing them on top of the pie crust/jam. It would also make much more sense to call for way less sugar. I don’t get it. Again, I’m not an experienced pie-/tart-maker, but the amount of sugar seems way odd. Did the recipe leave out a step or something? Can someone please reassure me that this is normal. Waiting to take mine out of the oven now…I really don’t think I’ll be able to convince my husband (or myself) to take a bite of sugar with a little pie crust a fruit.

The first time I was careful to follow directions to the tee but the following tarts, I made in 10 min. I luv easy recipes that taste great!

Really easy to prepare and very tasty. The fig jam was a very nice touch. Caught my husband licking his plate clean.

All i have to say is one word: EXCELLENT!

I have made this recipe countless times with different types of fruit, and it impresses my guests EVERY time! What a hit!
I have made tons of food network recipes over the years, and this one definitely definitely stands out. Thank you, Sunny!
