Plum Almond Tart

Zwetschgen-Mandel-Tarte

Almond shortcrust tart with plums and cinnamon almond streusel

Origin

The Zwetschgen-Mandel-Tarte pairs two German baking traditions: the almond tart and late-summer plum season. Zwetschgen—the small, dark-blue plums that flood German markets from August through October—are the classic fruit of German tarts and cakes. Oma's version sets them on a nutty almond shortcrust and crowns them with cinnamon almond streusel, a combination that lets the plums stay the star.

Perfect For

Naturally gluten-free and plant-based without anyone missing the wheat or butter—this is the tart to bring when the table has dietary needs and you don't want anyone to feel like an afterthought. Equally at home on the Kaffee und Kuchen table, at a farmers market stall, or as a dessert with whipped cream for those who can have it.
