Ingredients
125g/ 4.4oz butter
3 eggs
125g/ 4.4oz sugar
a pinch of salt
200g/ 7oz ground almonds
100g/ 3.5oz flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1.5 dl/ 0.3pt milk
1 orange peel
1 tsp cinnamon
8 plums
almond slivers
icing sugar
Preheat the oven at 180°C/ 356°F. Mix the ingredients together. Pour the mixture into the greased cake tin. Slice and pit the plums and place in a circular pattern onto of the mixture. Scatter the sliced almonds on top and bake for 35 minutes.
When it’s cooled down, sprinkle with the icing sugar.
Get yourself a cup of coffee, go outside and enjoy a slice (or maybe two slices) of your treat…

Makes me remember a trip to Germany where I had a mission to find the perfect pflaumenkuchen (sp?). I found a fabulous one at a tiny brunch place in Berlin– it had a streusel topping. I may have to tweak this into a gluten-free version…

Sounds delicious! For a gluten-free version try using maize meal instead of the flour.
kind regards,
Tammy
