This Damson Plum Crumble Cake is a delicious way to use up plums this year. I love crumble cakes even more than I love a fruit crumble. This crumble cake is one of my favorite recipes – so easy to make and tastes absolutely delicious. I know you’ll love it if you try it!
To make this crumble cake, start by making cake batter and placing it in a cake pan. Wash, half and remove the stones from the plums and spread them over the dough, so they stick out slightly. As the cake bakes, prepare the crumble by mixing flour, ground almonds, cinnamon and sugar. Add cubes of cold butter and rub it in to get crumbs. Pour the crumble over the half-baked cake and bake it for another 25 minutes.
To make Damson Plum Crumble Cake, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 355 °F and lightly grease a springform baking pan.
Mix 5 grams of baking powder with 150 grams of flour in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, cream 50 grams of butter with 50 grams of sugar. Add one egg and beat until smooth.
Add the flour mixture and pour in 125 milliliters of buttermilk. Whisk until you have a smooth batter.
Transfer the batter to the prepared springform pan and smooth.
Clean the plums and slice each one in half. Remove the stones and press the plum halves into the top of the dough so that they are slightly sticking out.
Bake for 25 minutes.
As the cake cooks, prepare the crumble by mixing 50 grams of flour in a bowl with 35 grams of ground almonds, ½ a teaspoon of cinnamon and 35 grams of sugar.
Cut the butter into cubes and use your fingers to rub it into the dry ingredients.
Remove the cake from the oven and spread the crumble mixture on top. Return it to the oven to bake for 25 more minutes.
Remove the cake from the oven and leave to cool on a wire rack.
Serve slightly warm topped with freshly whipped cream.
