Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius/ 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Prepare forms: Brush 6 ceramic ramekins or small baking dishes (about 10 cm/4-inch diameter and 2 cm/ 0.7 inch deep) with oil and line with baking parchment discs cut to come a little above the edge of the forms.
  3. Half and cut each half of the plums into 3-4 wedges. Then, arrange half of them in the prepared forms.
  4. Separate the eggs. Whisk the egg whites until stiff, add half of the sugar, and whisk again until soft peaks form. Set aside. In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the rest of the sugar until pale and creamy.
  5. Batter: Using a rubber spatula, fold in the flour. Add the vanilla essence, cream, and a pinch of salt. Split the vanilla pod, scrape out the seeds, and add them to the mixture. Fold the stiff egg whites gently into this batter. Pour the batter over the plums, about three-quarters up the paper cases.
  6. Bake for about 20 minutes. Take out, arrange the rest of the prepared plums on top, and bake for another 5 minutes or so until a skewer inserted in the middle of a cake comes out dry.
  7. Let cool slightly, then remove from the forms.
  8. Dust with icing sugar before serving.

Notes

  • Always use a digital kitchen scale when baking; it guarantees for best results (the Amazon link opens in a new tab).
