Soft prune filling scented with cinnamon and lemon baked over a lightly sweet biscuit base.

Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    For the proposed biscuit base, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; rub in cold butter. Stir in cold milk just until soft and cohesive, without kneading. Rest the soft dough briefly, then roll or shape to the thickness and form required by the specific dish.

  2. Step 2

    Simmer prunes in water until soft, drain excess liquid, mash and sweeten with sugar, cinnamon and lemon. Cool until spreadable.

  3. Step 3

    Heat oven to 180 °C. Butter a 23 cm pan, place the rolled proposed biscuit dough in it and spread prune filling across the base.

  4. Step 4

    Bake about 35–40 minutes until edges golden and base cooked through. Cool fully before serving.
