Description
Ripe fall plums melt into a jammy base under a golden, tender topping that’s somewhere between a biscuit and cake. Warm spices like cinnamon and cardamom bring out the fruit’s depth and make every bite feel like a hug. This rustic dessert is made to be shared—especially with a spoonful of crème fraîche or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
Ingredients
Filling
5–6 ripe plums, pitted and sliced
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cardamom
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Topping
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup cold butter, cubed
1/3 cup milk
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Toss sliced plums with sugar, spices, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Spread in a small baking dish.
For the topping, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in milk to form a thick batter.
Spoon topping over plums in rustic dollops.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, until topping is golden and filling is bubbling.
Serve warm with crème fraîche or Greek yogurt.
