Plum cake
So this is the simpler but I think tastier plum cake ,The cardamom gives it a delicious delicate flavour but u can skip that if u don’t like it or dint have it available
Can be eaten with ice cream warm or with ur tea or coffee
ingredients
1–1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1–1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 cup butter at room temperature
3/4 -1 cup sugar(i used 3/4 cup) and extra 2 tablespoons, for sprinkling on top
3 eggs at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup sour cream at room temperature (thick greek yogurt can work too)
2–3 plums, sliced thin or in halves or quarters based on ur liking
1tsp confectioners sugar with 1/4tsp of ground cardamom for dusting at the end
Add all dry ingredients except sugar in a bowl and mix ,leave aside
Pre heat oven to 350F
Cream butter and sugar in mixer till fluffy
Add eggs ,vanilla till mixed,add sour cream
Add dry ingredients till just mixed
Pour in a greased baking pan ,i used an 8 inch pan ,u can also use springform pan
Arrange or throw on plums at top😊 if u do thin slices will need less baking time
Press them a bit into the batter but u should still see the tops,see last picture
Sprinkle 2tbsp granular sugar all over
Bake at 350 for 40-60 minutes
As plums can take a bit longer to took
Check at 40 minutes with tooth pick if still soft add cooking time ,took 60 minutes for me
Once cooled remove from pan and dust with cardamom and icing sugar mix
