incredible authentic Bavarian black plum cake. It is necessary to add a crump topping - improves authenticity!




very good for seasonal coffee cake!

i enjoyed the plum cake immensely; it is sweet, but not too sweet, tart, fruity, and relatively simple, if you happen to have hazelnut flour on hand. i simply used a little regular flour with sugar. i also let the dough rise twice, unintentionally, because i had an appointment that took much longer than expected. but as i had used half whole wheat flour, the dough needed the extra time and came out delicious! it is perfect for afternoon tea, breakfast, or any other time of day.

This plum cake tastes pretty good. The dough could've been easier to make. I'll probably try rolled sugar cookie dough or rolled dough from the freezer section next time.

This recipe brought back childhood memories. My Mother is a born and raised Bavarian German. She made this cake often,and never with a crumb topping of any kind.We all loved it.I was very surprised to find it here. Yum.
