Ingredients
- 1 sheet rolled puff pastry Note 1
- 1 lb plums Note 2
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar Note 3
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon optional
- a few sprinklings of freshly ground black pepper optional
Instructions
- Prepare plums: Remove the stones and cut the plums into thin wedges. Toss with the sugar (and cinnamon if using) in a bowl.
- Unroll the sheet of pastry on the working surface, keeping its wrapping paper underneath. If it's not wrapped in parchment paper, lightly flour the working surface before unrolling.
- Cut the dough into squares. I had 15 mini tarts; if you like larger ones, cut the dough into larger squares or rectangles. Place the pieces on two baking trays lined with baking paper.
- Top: Arrange the plums on top, leaving a small border around the edges. If desired, sprinkle lightly with freshly ground black pepper.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until the plums are soft and slightly sticky and the pastry edges are golden and puffed.
- Let rest on the trays for five minutes. Then, transfer carefully to wire racks. Serve immediately or at room temperature.

Notes
- From the supermarket's refrigerator section, about 275 g/ 9.7 oz and about 25 cm/ 9.8 inches long. Frozen puff pastry can be used instead. Defrost it according to the package instructions and roll it, if necessary.
- Red/yellow plums or Italian plums. Other fruit can be used instead.
- White sugar is fine as well.
- Large plum tart: unroll the pastry but don't cut it. Top with the sugared plums. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the plums are softer and the edges of the pastry are puffed and golden. Let rest on the tray for about 10-15 minutes before slicing.
