Ingredients

6 plums, cut in half, pitted and thinly sliced (2 cups)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 pieces very thinly sliced white bread, such as Pepperidge Farm, cut into 4-inch rounds
1 tablespoon melted butter
1/4 cup low-fat vanilla yogurt

Preparation

Place rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 450°F.
Combine plums, sugar and cinnamon in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the plums are tender and the juices have thickened, 5 to 7 minutes.
Meanwhile, place bread rounds on a baking sheet and brush with melted butter. Spoon the plum mixture over each bread round, so that all the bread is covered.
Bake the tarts until the bread is crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve topped with a dollop of yogurt.
