Plum Almond Buckle

21 09 2010
I was at a back to school get together for my son’s class and one of the Mom’s made this really great Plum Almond Buckle. A buckle is simply a butter cake that bakes up around fresh fruit. It is very similar to a Betty. I think it comes out like a nice plum coffeecake. Anyway, I asked her to send me the recipe and she did. I thought it was delicious. The recipe calls for a lot of sugar. I have substituted a smaller amount of date or coconut sugar. She used plums off of her tree so I think any nice ripe plums would do. Thank you Lori for the recipe.
