Steps

Total time: 50 minutes

1

Make the pie crust and let it rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour, then roll it out.
2

Place the crust in a high-sided baking pan (I use silicone, so I don't grease it), then chill in the refrigerator.
3

Heat some water, put the prunes in a mixing bowl, and add the hibiscus flowers.
4

Pour enough boiling water to cover, stir, and let steep at room temperature until completely cooled.
5

Drain the prunes and remove the hibiscus flowers.
6

Heat the milk to a boil. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until pale and creamy.
7

Add the cornstarch and mix well. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
8

Gradually add the hot milk to the egg mixture, stirring constantly.
9

Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring, until thickened.
10

Arrange the prunes over the crust.
11

Pour the custard over the prunes.
12

Bake for 40 minutes, then let cool on a wire rack.
13

Once the tart is cool, cover and refrigerate for 6 hours.
14

Remove the tart from the pan.
15

Invert onto a serving plate.
16

Decorate with a sliced prune.
17

It's ready! Enjoy!
