Instructions
In a food processor, pulse almonds until they become an almond meal. Add flour, salt and cinnamon and pulse to combine. Add vegan butter and honey and pulse until butter is the size of peas, with some bigger pieces. Remove from food processor and place in a bowl, add in water until a dough forms. Pat into a flat circle and chill for at least an hour.
To make the filling, combine plums, cornstarch, honey, lemon juice and salt in a bowl and mix together. Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes. Filling should be thick and not super liquidy.
Preheat oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the dough to a 12-inch circle about 1/2 inch thick. Spoon filling into the middle of the dough. Crimp dough over the filling leaving a circle in the middle. Brush crust with almond milk.
Bake at 375F for 40-50 minutes, until crust is golden brown.
