Method

Preheat the oven to 220°C.

Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the base of the 20cm cake tin.

Arrange the plum halves cut-side down on top of the sugar.

Roll the marzipan into a thin circle slightly smaller than the tin and place over the plums.

Roll the pastry to the width of the tin, lay it over the fruit, and tuck in the edges.

Cut a small cross in the pastry top to allow steam to escape.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the pastry is golden and plums are tender.

Loosen the edges and turn the tart out onto a plate to serve.
