Instructions
a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Remove the puff pastry from your fridge and allow to come up to room temperature.
b) Halve the plums, remove the stone and slice the flesh into 1cm thick wedges. Pop the plum wedges into a medium bowl with the honey. TIP: If your honey has hardened, pop it in a bowl of hot water for 1 min.
c) Mix together and leave to macerate for 5-10 mins. TIP: This will soften the plums slightly.
d) Keeping it on its baking paper, unroll the puff pastry (see ingredients for amount). Transfer the pastry and baking paper to a baking tray.
a) Using a knife, score a 1-2cm border all around - be careful not to cut all the way through.
b) Once the plums have soaked in the honey, arrange the wedges side by side on the pastry sheet in a single layer. Keep the sugary syrup in the bowl for the next step.
c) Bake the plum tart on the top shelf of your oven until the pastry is golden and the plums have softened, 15-20 mins.
d) When the tart has 10 mins remaining, fill a small saucepan with about 3cm water and bring to a gentle boil on medium-high heat.
a) Put the chocolate chips into a large heatproof bowl. Set the bowl above the saucepan of water (if the bowl touches the water, pour a little water out - you don’t want it touching).
b) Heat, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate has melted, then set the bowl aside.
c) Once the tart is baked, spoon the sugary syrup evenly over the plums.
d) Slice the tart and add to your sharing plates. Serve with the melted chocolate drizzled over and a spoonful of creme fraiche alongside.
Enjoy!
