Plum fruit season is in full swing, they’re juicy, sweet and so refreshing.  I ended up with a lot of freshly picked plums. Although, I so much enjoyed eating a great deal of them I had extra which allowed me to experiment in making this cake.

This plum cake exceeded my expectations, it turned out so delicious, incredibly fluffy, and moist. The best part is that it is very easy to make with only a few ingredients. An alternative breakfast option could be my Apple Walnut Cake. Here you can find a vegan version see Kerala style Plum Cake

Here is how to make plum cake:

Start by blending all wet ingredients, begin with eggs, then add vanilla, butter, sugar. Gradually add the dry ingredients over the mix, starting with flour, baking soda, salt, lemon zest then add yogurt. Integrate all the ingredients well together.

The kind of plums I used here are the black plums, they have a dark color on the inside with a sweet juicy taste, and the skin is a bit tart, which makes a great combination when added to the cake. Any other type of plums can still work.

Cut the plums into wedges, then take about a handful of the wedges and cut each wedge into half then add them to the cake mix. No need to add a lot of plums, too much fruit in the cake will make it sticky rather than fluffy and we are aiming for a slight touch of the plums and more cake.

Then pour the cake mix in a 9” size greased pan. Decorate the rest of the plum’s wedges on the top of the cake. I set them all-around, feel free to decorate whichever way you like. Bake for 30-35 minutes at 350 degrees.
