I made these to use up a bunch of ingredients I had before leaving on a long vacation, and brought them to Thanksgiving dinner with our neighbors.
Notes:
- I made my own almond paste. It was super easy. My almond flour was ground quite finely so I didn't even have to use the food processor. The recipe I linked makes about 7 oz. I put the extra in the bottom of the filling as the recipe suggests.
- I could not resist sprinkling some ground cinnamon into the plums.
Verdict: It was a bit more work than many things I make and it was good but maybe not enough to justify making regularly.
