Marie's Blue Plum Cake
Nicole here again, getting some great baking in this fall season! While there are many fruits currently in season this time of year, including prickly pears, figs and peaches; blue plums are now available and in season from late August to mid-October, making this cake a delightful autumn treat as we acknowledge the end of summer. This recipe was lovingly created by my friend, Marie who baked an individual plum cake one night at her dinner party just for me. Marie's famous recipe was an instant success, as I recall having two pieces after dinner that night, bringing the rest of my blue plum cake home. It was polished off the next morning with my coffee. This gluten-free recipe is simple to make using two staple pantry items; oat and almond flour. The fruit and lemon combination is the star of this recipe, leaving the cake incredibly moist and flavourful with a light, lingering sweetness. A perfect complement with a cup of tea. Yields: 10-12 servings Tea Pairing:...
