  • cinnamon sugar

Recipe for a springform pan with a diameter of 28 cm

In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Sprinkle butter on top, then add the sugar and egg. Knead everything vigorously with your hands until you have a smooth dough. Wrap the dough in cling film and refrigerate for one hour. Roll out approximately two-thirds of the dough into a round shape and place it on the bottom of a 28 cm springform pan. Shape the remaining third of the dough into a long rope the size of the springform pan and place it in the springform pan along the edge. Form the rope into a high rim, pressing it firmly against the base of the dough. Slice the plums lengthwise from top to bottom, remove the stones, and place them on the dough, starting from the edge, with the tips facing up. Bake the plum cake in a preheated oven at 180°C (top and bottom heat) for about 45 minutes. Mix the cinnamon and sugar together and sprinkle the finished cake with it.
