Preheat oven to 375°F.

Add sour cream. Process until it forms a ball. Press the dough into a 12-inch tart pan
with a removable bottom. Bake for 18 minutes, or until lightly browned. Let cool for
15 minutes.

To prepare the custard, mix sugar, flour and salt. In another bowl, beat eggs and sour
cream. Add the sugar mixture to the egg mixture and blend well.
Arrange sliced plums in concentric circles on the baked crust. Gently pour the custard
over the plums.
Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the custard is set and golden brown. Let cool for
10 minutes.
Set the tart on a glass plate and gently remove the pan ring. Makes 8-12 servings.
