Streusel plum cake
By: Derf
Sep 25, 2001
This cake is low in fat and not too sweet. The glaze is optional, it takes a minute to prepare and adds only a few more calories. Great way to use up fresh plumbs in season. We like it best without the glaze, which also helps the diabetic.

Wonderful! Halved the recipe and made it in a pie plate, was a great size for just the two of us. I was looking for the best recipe for the fresh plums from my aunt's tree, and this was it! (Also used cake flour, some chopped nuts and skipped the glaze) It was the perfect light dessert, thanks for sharing the recipe!

Thanks for the recipe. It was easy to make and delicious to eat. I omitted the glaze and served it with a dollop of vanilla ice cream

Thank you Dorothy once again. (I've also made your Marzipan bars.) This is the first time I have made a cake with plums, and let me just say that even my 5-yr-old boy loved it. Easy to make, and I even added an extra plum! Very impressive. Thanks.

Five stars isn't enough for this recipe! You have brought back a wonderful childhood memory for me. When I was a child I lived next to a man who was a professional baker and when plums were in season he made something very similar to your recipe and it was my favorite. I've been wanting it ever since and now I've found it thanks to you. I made it tonight for my Mother's 88th Birthday and it was a five star sensation!!
