After reading some of the reviews saying it needed more flavor, I decided to make this with a few of my own ingredients. What I did different was after quartering the plums I marinated them in a cup of sugar, tbsp of walnut extract, tbsp of rum extract, 2 tbsp of Wild Turkey American Honey and 1/4 tsp of cinnamon for 45 minutes before arranging them in the pan. It turned out phenomenal!!! I will definitely make this again and again.

I accidentally made a plum pie instead of tart : I used too many plums. The crust is great! I added cinnamon, nutmeg & salt to the crust mixture & used pecans instead of walnuts. Caution: Only make if you have sweet, ripe fruit. My plums were sour so I put sugar on them & added a few dried apricots but they were still sour after cooking. Next time, I will make sure the fruit is ripe & sweet. That is the key. Thanks Ina.

One of my hubby's favorites desserts! I used plums that weren't too ripe so that I could cut them. And to make it less dry, I served it warm with some vanilla ice cream on top. I switched it up with peach couple of times (I boiled them for about a minute in boiling water, then peeled the skin off, and the taste was richer than the plums, but it was still pretty good. I also used the store bought graham cracker crust instead, but with the same amount of ingredients, spread the mixture over the fruits. I've made it this same way about 10 times now and it's always been a hit with our families.

I decided to make this exactly as written, just with others suggestions of 2 cups of crumble for crust.
Nice but really needs flavorings. I notice several people commented added salt. Very necessary...also cinnamon nutmeg,sugar.
The concept of one batter for crust and topping is great and potentially time saving the but tart if made as instructed really is missing "something". Several comments said that.
So I like Ina still, but this is was not a big hit.
If I try it again it will be with be many enhancements. I have so many other great alternatives..not anytime soon.

I recently made this for my parents while they were in town visiting. The tart is extremely easy to prepare, even for a beginning cook. My plums seemed to be a bit on the tart side despite appearing ripe, and I think my dessert would have benefited if I'd served it with sweetened whipped cream or a little bit of vanilla ice cream. I liked the nutty crust and crumble topping, though it was a shame to cover up the pretty flower-shape spread of plum slices!

Exceptionally easy to prepare - everyone loved the dough. I'm always looking for a way to use my home grown plums, and this was truly a winner.

My plums were a little sour, but the tart itself was amazing!
Ina is the best!

Ths is a wonderful recipe not only because it tastes so good but because it's so easy to make. I have made it both as a tart and in my little tiny muffin tins as a finger food (I cut the recipe in half--- the little muffin tarts are easy to eat and just as flavorful. I would like to try this next using a different fruit such as apples, berries, peaches or strawberry rhubarb.
