Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large bowl, mix the gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, granulated sugar, and salt together.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or two knives to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Beat the egg and add it to the flour mixture, along with the cold water. Mix until a dough forms.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
While the dough is chilling, prepare the plum filling. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced plums, brown sugar, vanilla extract, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss until the plums are evenly coated.
Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch tart pan.
Transfer the dough into the tart pan, pressing it down and up the sides. Trim any excess dough.
Arrange the plum filling evenly over the crust.
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the plums are soft and bubbling.
Allow the tart to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your delicious gluten-free plum tart!
