1
- For the topping
- 2 egg whites
- 4 Tbsps sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 cup ground almonds
- 10 cups damson (halved and pitted)
Preparation steps
1.
Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C in a fan oven), 400°F, gas 6 and grease a cake tin.
2.
Pile the flour on the work surface and stir in the sugar and a pinch of salt. Create a well in the middle and place the butter around the well. Crack the egg into the well and add a little cold water. Chop all the ingredients up together so that breadcrumbs are formed. Quickly knead into a ball, wrap in cling film and chill for 30 minutes.
3.
To make the crumbles, rub together the butter, sugar, flour and almonds. Cover and chill in the fridge.
4.
Roll out the dough onto a floured work surface and place it in the prepared cake tin.
5.
Beat the egg white and the sugar until stiff. Stir in the cinnamon and the ground almonds and spread on top of the dough. Place the damsons on top so that they overlap and sprinkle with the crumbles. Bake for around 50 minutes.
