Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 150 g butter, soft
  • 100 g crème fraîche
  • 2 eggs
  • 100 g sugar
  • 1 packet of vanilla sugar
  • 400 g flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 450 g plum jam
  • Flour , for the work surface

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Total time approx. 1 hour 30 minutes

Mix the butter, crème fraîche, 1 whole egg, 1 egg white, sugar, and vanilla sugar using the dough hook of a hand mixer. Sift the flour and baking powder over the dough and knead in, cover, and chill for 15 minutes. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Place two-thirds of the dough on the tray, dust with flour, and roll out to the size of the tray. Brush with the plum jam. Preheat the oven to 175°C. Dust the work surface with flour. Knead the remaining dough again and roll out into a rectangle about 3 mm thick. Lightly whisk 1 egg yolk with a pastry brush and brush a thin layer of it over the dough. Use a pastry wheel to cut out 1 cm wide strips and place them diagonally on the jam, 3 cm apart, to form a lattice. Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes. Allow to cool on the tray. Then cut into even squares of about 5 x 5 cm.
