Zwetschgendatsche (Damson Plum Tart)
Ingredients
250 g Flour (2 cups plus 3 1/2 Tbsp)

30 g Fresh yeast (1 oz)

100 g Butter (7 Tbsp)

2 Eggs

1 pinch Salt

3 tbsp Sugar

1/4 liter Milk (1 cup plus 1 Tbsp)

1/2 Lemon [grated rind, I would think. K.B.]

Topping:

1 1/2 kg Damson plums, rinsed, pitted (3 1/4 lbs)

5 tbsp Sugar

1 tbsp Cinnamon

30 g Butter for greasing cookie sheet (2 Tbsp)

Plain breadcrumbs

Preparation
Dough:

Prepare a yeast dough. Grease a cookie sheet and dust it with breadcrumbs. On it, roll out the dough to about finger thick. Along the edges, pull up the dough to form a rim. Top the tart with tightly arranged plum halves (at a slight angle). Dust with cinnamon, and bake at medium heat for 40 to 45 minutes. Once done, dust with sugar.

Serves 4.
