Plum Torte
 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 stick margarine (½ cup), softened
  • 1 cup flour (plus 1 tablespoon)
  • 1 scant teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • Fruit of your choice, such as canned apricots, fresh plums, or frozen cherries, cut in half or pitted.
  • Sugar and lemon juice
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Prepare a tart pan by spraying well in the corners and a little on the bottom. Line bottom with some parchment paper so that it’s easy to transfer onto a serving plate.
  2. In a bowl, combine sugar, margarine, flour, baking powder, and eggs. Using a spoon, mix it until combined. To make a few at a time, I prepare multiple bowls, and add to each bowl, one cup sugar, then one cup flour…
  3. Place batter into a tart pan. The batter will look scant, but it rises over the fruit as it bakes.
  4. If using frozen fruit, defrost fully. If using canned, dry them slightly, so that they aren't very wet. Line up fruits over the batter. Sprinkle fruits with sugar and drizzle with a little lemon juice.
  5. Bake for 45-55 minutes. Remove and cool; refrigerate or freeze. You can serve it at room temperature or rewarm it briefly.
