This was so good! My store was out of plums so I used nectarines instead, and had to marinade them in extra sugar because they were very tart. The outcome was awesome, my family loved it!

this is the best cornbread i've ever made and had! super moist, not oversweet, plum give it a very nice tart touch. but i baked longer than 30 minutes, about 45 minutes. i only put the plum in, didn't put the jiuce in because the batter is already moist enough. actually, i used the plum jiuce along with a couple pieces of plum and made some delicous plum tea.

I did not have good luck with this recipe. Since I had seen the show where Anne made this it was easy to follow the recipe exactly as written, but it took much longer to cook than indicated. The plums were tasty, but the corn bread was bland. I have been picking out the fruit and leaving the bread behind. My kids spit it out. Sorry Anne! For an iron chef sous chef, I expected it to be outstanding. It was mediocre at best. I won't make it again.

This is a very easy dessert to make. I may try it with strawberry or start fruit next time.
My kids loved it.

A very good base recipe for so many ideas. I decided to substitute the plums with strawberries. I let my strawberries form a syrup, but because of the moisture that they hold, I decided to reserve the syrup and just use the berry meat in the cornbread. I used the syrup along with the juice of a lemon and about 1/4 cup of raspberry concentrate to make a reduction to drizzle over the icecream and cornbread.

This is a very easy dessert to make and there are so many possibilities with it. As always Chef Anne makes restaurant food doable for us simpleton home cooks.

This was not just my first cornbread making experience, but my first cornbread eating one as well. I'd been itching to make this for weeks, but wanted to wait for plums to show up. I found them at the grocery today! And followed this recipe to the T, step for step, this evening. The cornbread itself is delicious, and I love plums, but mine not being in season meant they were a bit sour even with the sugar coating.
If you find good plums in season, I recommend trying this recipe as my friend enjoyed it too.
I made it in a cast iron skillet which worked great.

I may try it with peaches, or I'll try to be patient for in season fruit.

The Plum Cornbread sounded good to me. My husband loves corn bread and have tried many recipes. I didn't have any plums but thought what the heck. He said this was the best corn bread I have ever made. Serve it with honey butter and it's a huge hit. I still want to try it with plums!

Oh. My. Goodness. I have been baking cornbread and corn muffins for decades: never thought to use any fruit in it. Now, I will never make it any other way! Thank you, Anne, for a "plum" of an idea and so, so, so, scrumptious!
You've made me a happy girl!!! (okay, old lady!
