180 g plain flour
25 g Dansukker Cane Sugar Granulated
30 ml water

Instructions
Quickly work together the butter/margarine, sugar and water into a smooth dough. Press the dough into a greased pie dish roughly 28 cm in diameter. Prick with a fork. Chill for 30 minutes.
Grind the almonds finely. Mix together all the ingredients for the filling and pour into the crust. Halve the plums and remove the stones. Press the plum halves into the filling.

The plums can be replaced with other fruits or berries.
