Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Coconut flour
- 0.5 cup Erythritol
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 5 medium Plums
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch tart pan with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, combine 1.5 cups of almond flour, 0.5 cup of coconut flour, and 0.25 cup of erythritol.
Melt 0.5 cup of unsalted butter and mix it into the dry ingredients along with a large egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir until a dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared tart pan. Prick the base with a fork to prevent bubbling.
Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let it cool slightly.
Wash and slice the 5 medium plums, removing the pits. Toss the plum slices with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 0.25 cup of erythritol, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 0.25 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, and 0.5 teaspoon of xanthan gum until well coated.
Arrange the plum mixture over the prebaked crust in an overlapping circular pattern.
Place the tart back into the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes until the plums are tender and the topping is bubbly.
Let the tart cool completely before serving. Optionally, serve with a dusting of additional erythritol or a dollop of whipped cream.
