• Saturday, December 30, 2006 - New Year's Plum Cake

Posted in In the Kitchen

I found this on-line and thought about trying it. The source says NY Times, but you never know with recipes and the internet! Here goes:

 

  • c. Italian (prune) plums, halved (Use these plums only.)
  • 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon (I often use a little more)
  • 1/4 c. sugar
  • 1 1/4 c. sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 c. vegetable oil
  • 1/2 c. orange juice (preferably fresh)
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 3 c. unsifted flour
  • 3 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

 

Butter (or whatever) a bundt pan.

 

Sprinkle plums with cinnamon & 1/4 c. sugar.

 

Beat eggs, add sugar, then oil, then OJ and vanilla. Sift dry ingredients together. Combine egg mixture and dry ingredients.

 

Put 1/3 of the batter in a pan, then 1/3 plums; repeat layers of batter and plums, ending with plums.

 

Bake for 80 minutes (until golden), let sit for 20 minutes before unmolding.

 

Dust with confectioner's sugar and enjoy.
