When plums are ripe on the tree, or in the market, this is one recipe to try. We love it in our family. I have a recipe for Plum Custard Kuchen which is very rich and delish, but also more fattening than this one.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter at room temp.
1 cup granulated sugar plus 1 tablespoon for topping
2 large eggs
1 cup flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 1/4 lbs. italian or blue plums, quartered
1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice
pinch of cinnamon
Directions:
1. Cream together butter and 1 cup sugar until well blended; beat in eggs, then flour and baking powder. Beat to mix well; turn into buttered 9-inch springform pan.
2. Place plum quarters on top of batter, close together in circles starting at the outside, in a flower or petal pattern. Sprinkle with lemon juice.
3. Mix remaining sugar with cinnamon; sprinkle over top.
4. Bake in center of 350F oven for 1 hour or until cake tester in center comes out clean and top is golden brown.
5. Serve warm or cold with whipped cream, slightly sweetened, or low-fat yogurt or vanilla ice cream.
