Talk about comfort food, here's a delectable example from Janet Fahrenbruck-Lynch, the winner in Cincinnati, Ohio. Her old-fashioned dessert has the perfect sweet-tart balance with its fresh-plum tang and sweet, crispy topping. Imagine it warm from the oven, served with a scoop of ice creamâ¦yum! Ingredients:
7 large plums, pitted and quartered |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
3 tablespoons plus 1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour, divided |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground mace |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
1/2 cup butter, melted |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the plums, brown sugar, 3 tablespoons flour and cinnamon. Spoon into a greased 2-qt. baking dish.
2. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, baking powder, salt, mace and remaining flour. Add egg; stir with a fork until crumbly. Sprinkle over plum mixture. Drizzle with butter.
3. Bake at 375° for 40-45 minutes or until plums are tender and top is golden brown. Cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature. Yield: 8 servings.
