German Damson Plum Cake
This German Damson Plum Cake is a delicious tray bake topped with a buttery nutty streusel. There is a bit of work involved in washing, drying and pitting the plums, but the prep time is worth it! Remove the stone from the plums using a sharp knife. To do this, cut each plum on the side along the stone, but take care not to half them completely.
To make the cake, start by making the streusel from sugar, butter and vanilla. When the streusel comes together, add sliced almonds and ground cinnamon. Next, make dough using curd cheese. Transfer the dough to the baking pan and top with the plums. Sprinkle the streusel over the top and add coarse sugar if you like. Bake in the oven and enjoy warm. Serve with ice cream or custard.
