NYT Original Plum Torte
Report
These gorgeous plums were part of the loot. I went straight for NYT Cooking Original Plum Torte recipe by Marian Burros printed in 1983. It’s buttery and rich also tangy and juicy. Summer is leaving, fall is coming. This is a perfect marriage of the two.

Ingredients
- ¾ to 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup unbleached flour sifted
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- pinch salt optional
- 2 eggs
- 24 halves pitted purple plums
- sugar lemon juice and cinnamon, for topping
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cream the sugar and butter in a bowl. Add the flour, baking powder, salt and eggs and beat well.
- Spoon the batter into a springform pan of 8, 9 or 10 inches. Place the plum halves skin side up on top of the batter. Sprinkle lightly with sugar and lemon juice, depending on the sweetness of the fruit. Sprinkle with about 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, depending on how much you like cinnamon.
- Bake 1 hour, approximately. Remove and cool; refrigerate or freeze if desired. Or cool to lukewarm and serve plain or with whipped cream. (To serve a torte that was frozen, defrost and reheat it briefly at 300 degrees.)
Notes
- To freeze, double-wrap the torte in foil, place in a plastic bag and seal.
