Shortcrust pastry baked with plums – notes
I invite you to a delicious and very simple to prepare shortcrust pastry with plums. This recipe is also very quick because the dough does not require chilling in the refrigerator – you bake it immediately after preparation. Now, in season, bake a cake with ripe and juicy plums. You can also use other available fruits – pears, apples, peaches. You can also use canned or jarred fruits. I found the cake recipe on Kasia’s blog Gotuję bo lubię (I cook because I like it) and I think I will use it many times.
Mainly because in about 1.5 hours you can enjoy a delicious shortcrust pastry with fruit. And a still warm cake is ideal to serve with a scoop of ice cream – yum. From the given recipe, you will get a large baking sheet of cake – I baked it in a 20/30 cm one.
P.S. After preparing this cake, you will have egg whites left over, which are best used to bake meringues :D
I also encourage you to try other recipes for shortcrust pastries.

Recipe for shortcrust pastry with plums
I invite you to a very simple and quick cake with plums and crumble topping. This cake is actually a semi-shortcrust pastry, and that's because we add a little baking powder to it. Thanks to the baking powder, the cake is more delicate and a little softer than traditional shortcrust pastry. An additional advantage of this cake is that we don't need to chill it. Immediately after preparation, we line the mold with it and bake. This essentially shortens the waiting time for a fragrant and aromatic plum cake :)
