1   Pate sucree dough - see separate recipe
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlGround cinnamon

Roll out dough on floured surface to 12-inch-diameter round. Transfer pastry to center of another heavy large baking sheet. Overlap plums in concentric circles on pastry, forming 9-inch-diameter circle in center. Combine remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon in small bowl. Sprinkle sugar mixture over plums. Fold edge of pastry over plums, pinching to seal any cracks in pastry. Brush crust twice with egg white.
