Ingredients
1 11-inch pie shell, unbaked and chilled or frozen
1 ¼ pounds ripe firm plums
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup port
1 vanilla bean
Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Step 2
Cut the plums in half down the indentation and twist the halves in opposite directions. Pull apart and remove the stones. Slice the halves into thirds and set aside.
- Step 3
Arrange the plums in a circle around the tart shell, letting the slices overlap slightly. Place the tart in the oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown.
- Step 4
Meanwhile, simmer the sugar in the port with the vanilla bean over medium heat until you have a thick glaze. When the tart has cooked, cool and pour the warm glaze over the plums. Serve warm, with vanilla ice cream.
