Ingredients
Sift the flour into a blender or food processor, add the ground cinnamon, salt, butter and egg yolk. Process for 30 seconds or until evenly combined. Add the chilled water and process for a further 30 seconds. Knead together lightly, and roll out to a circle about 25.5cm/10in in diameter. Put on a baking tray and chill for 10–15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas mark 6.
Prick the pastry all over with a fork. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until golden brown.
Arrange the plums over the cooked pastry, and sprinkle with the sugar. Put back in the oven for 40–45 minutes until the plums are tender.
To finish, melt the jam in a small saucepan with 2 tablespoons water, bring to the boil and bubble for 1 minute. Brush or spoon over the warm tart to glaze.
