Ingredients
  • 1 package store bought puff pastry, thawed
  • 3-4 plums
  • Apricot jam
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1-2 tbsp. turbinado sugar
 
Instructions
  1. Thaw one package of puff pastry and set oven temp as per directions. They usually come with two 9" squares, you'll just need one. Spread pastry on a piece of parchmont paper and lightly stretch out the edges into a rough circle (or keep the shape square if you like).
  2. Spread a thin layer of apricot jam on the base, leaving a 2" border around the circle.
  3. Cut your plums into thin slices and arrange in a circular fan on top of apricot jam.
  4. Gently brush a layer of egg around the bare edges of circle then fold edges over and lightly press to form crust.
  5. Brush the top of newly formed crust with egg and sprinkle with turbinado sugar (optional)
  6. In a microwave safe bowl, mix the honey and 1 tablespoon of apricot jam and microwave until it becomes liquid. Approx 20 sec or more if needed. Then use brush to glaze over the plums.
  7. Bake as per instructions keeping a close watch.
