Boy was I ever diasppointed! After reading all the wonderful reviews, I thought this was going to be amazing I followed the directions to a T - I bake all the time - and found it to be a soggy, greasy cake which took much longer to bake than stated. Too much butter, for one thing...I tried it twice and was disappointed both times. Sorry NNREQ. Won't be making this one again!!

    Wonderful! I gave this recipe to a girl @ work whose mom has a plum tree and she brought in a loaf. Everyone was raving about it! They couldn't say enough good things about it! Nice strong, moist bread. Thanx for sharing!

    If there were a way, I would rate this recipe 50 stars! I'm not kidding - this is the most delicious quick bread recipe I have ever made or had (and that's really saying something!). I used regular red plums off our backyard tree (chopped up in chunks with the skin still on) and strawberry yogurt. I also folded the plum chunks into the batter rather than the layering technique described. The loaves are moist and fragrant but most of all the taste is divine. The skin-on plum chunks collapse into sweet tart & tangy little fruity bits of heaven. The batter is strong enough to hold the fruit in place rather than having it all drop to the bottom. I'm telling you - you cannot beat this bread for a fabulous way to use fresh plums. A big A plus, 5 stars and 2 thumbs up! UPDATE: I just wanted to say that I made this recipe again and it came out just a fabulous as before! This time I sprinkled sugar on top and it made a delightful sugary crust. I'm uploading a picture so you can see how yummy it is!

    What can I say except... perfection, I made this yesterday and only half a loaf is left if that, next time I am hiding one just for me, this is like heaven in a loaf pan. Thank you!
