Ingredients

Cake Batter

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 3 medium eggs
  • 6 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup palm oil shortening
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Plum Layer

  • 5-10 whole plums depending on personal taste
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • pinch of sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a 7" spring form cake pan with parchment paper.
  • Combine all of the ingredients for the cake batter in a medium size mixing bowl or use a KitchenAid. Whip the batter until smooth or evenly combined.
  • Cut the desired about of plums into halves. Keep in mind: the more plums added to the cake, the more liquid there will be. If you add more then 5 plums, the cake will be a lot more moist.
  • Grease the parchment paper lined cake pan with 1 teaspoon coconut oil. Then lay the plum halves into the bottom of the cake pan.
  • Drizzle the plums with 1 tablespoon maple syrup and a sprinkle of sea salt.
  • Pour the cake batter over the plums and bake the cake on 350 degrees for 65 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

Optional: Serve with vanilla ice-cream.
