Juicy, ripe, purple plums are a reminder of summer!  I absolutely love this recipe, with its delicate taste of the frangipane creme (almond) and the tarte plums. This tart is a perfect ending to a summer evening BBQ!

RECIPE TIP 1: To make the crust for this recipe, use my Short Crust Pastry/ Pâté Sucrée recipe.

RECIPE TIP 2: You can buy vanilla sugar, but it is easy to make – just check my Vanilla Sugar recipe.
