Easiest 10 Minute Prep Plum Tarte Tatin!
An Original Recipe by Lorraine Elliott
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 25 minutes
Degree of difficulty: easy
- 1/4 cup golden syrup or treacle (warmed in the microwave for 10 seconds)
- 500g/1.1lbs plums (I used Queen Garnet plums), cut in half
- 2 tablespoons of butter, cut into cubes
- 1.5 sheets butter puff pastry defrosted
- Vanilla ice cream to serve
Step 1 - Line a 20cm/8inch round springform tin on the base with parchment and spray the sides with oil spray. Brush the golden syrup on the base of the prepared tin. Preheat oven to 200C/400F.
Step 2 - Place plums skin side down (or you can do it the other way cut side up if you prefer). Place them close together so they are touching. Place butter on top and then place one sheet of puff pastry curling around the sides to fit the tin. Place the other half piece of puff pastry in the centre. Place in the fridge until needed. You can do this earlier in the day too.
Step 3 - Place the springform tin on a baking tray to catch any juices and bake for 25 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes then place a plate over it and then carefully turn it over so that the pastry is at the bottom. Serve with ice cream.
