1.
Prepare a yeast dough from the flour, 50 g sugar, yeast, milk and 20 g melted butter and let rise for 30 minutes. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Roll the dough to about 60 x 60 cm, chill for 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 200°C. Wash, pit and quarter the plums lengthwise. Melt the remaining butter and mix with quark. Add two egg yolks, the rest of the sugar and lemon zest and stir in.
