Ingredients:

Calorie controlled cooking spray

3 x 45g large sheets of filo pastry

2 tablespoons ground almonds

12 small, firm plums, halved and stoned

A quarter teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 tablespoons caster sugar

1 teaspoon icing sugar (for dusting)

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 6/200C/180C fan oven. Spray a small swiss roll tin with a little of the cooking spray and line it with a sheet of filo pastry. Trim the pastry to fit with a pair of scissors.

2. Place the pastry trimming on top, then cover with the next layer of pastry, putting the trimmings between the whole sheets and spraying as you go. You’ll end up with a whole sheet of filo.

3. Scatter the filo with the ground almonds then arrange the plums on top. Mix the cinnamon into the sugar and sprinkle over the plums. Bake for 25-30minutes until the pastry is golden and the plums are tender. Leave to cool before slicing and serving with the icing sugar dusted over the top using a small sieve.

Cook’s Tip: If you slice the plums into quarters, you can bake the tart for less time. After 20 minutes, the quartered plums will be tender and ready to eat.
