*Not for perfectionists
Okay… this recipe is not for the “perfectionist,” so take into account your self warned 😉
Whereas it appears all glam with its fractal / floral sample when it is freshly baked… when it is time to serve and eat, it is messy in the very best of the way. The plum filling is gooey, juicy and luxurious. The crust is sort of a skinny cookie crumble.
Scoop it out of the pan in the easiest way you possibly can, high it with some vanilla ice cream or whipped vegan yogurt, and I assure you it will be a pleasant expertise via and thru.

The plums are actually the star of the present right here. And being in season, they’re lush, tremendous flavorful, and do not require a lot else to make an exquisite dessert.
For the glaze I took a web page out of Janel’s apple rosette cookies recipe and went for an apricot glaze. It provides a stunning sheen, protects the skinny plum slices from burning, and mildly sweetens the tart and balances out the sunshine tartness of the plums whereas protecting the recipe refined sugar-free.

A couple of closing suggestions for achievement with this recipe:
- If for any purpose you are confused by the instructions, methods to slice or lay out the plums (it is tremendous straightforward however typically may be onerous to explain), please watch the video for the recipe.
- If you wish to make this in a daily sized 9″ pie plate, double the recipe.
- If you would like a thicker / extra substantial crust that holds up its form higher (I stored the crust right here skinny like in a galette virtually, to permit the plums to shine via extra), you possibly can improve the crust components by half (i.e. use 1.5 of the whole lot).
- If you cannot discover macadamia nut butter, be at liberty to make use of cashew-butter as an alternative. Word: you need the nut butter to be creamy and runny (should you get a jar that has oil separation on the high, stir it very totally first to create a good creamy combination).

Notes
*Word: you should have some left over, however you want roughly this quantity to get sufficient good even slices.
** I used St. Dalfour apricot jam, which is fruit-sweetened.
*** Word that one of these dough can find yourself various in consistency slightly as a result of consistency of the nut butter you employ. So in case your dough is just too dry, add a bit extra nut butter / maple syrup. If it is manner too moist, add a bit extra rice flour as wanted. You need it to be smooth and pliable so you possibly can form it to suit the dish.
**** If utilizing a tart pan with fluted edges, you would possibly want to make use of slightly skewer or toothpick to separate the crust from the partitions slightly earlier than pulling the tart or a slice out.
