Description

Instead of a large baking dish, you can use several small ones. In this case, the steps remain the same, but the baking time will be shorter (20-25 minutes).

Ingredients

Plums - 17.6 oz
Armagnac - 3 tablespoons
Sugar - ½ cup
Farm fresh eggs - 4 pieces
Milk - 1 cup
Butter - 3 tablespoons
Wheat Flour - ½ cup
Salt - ¼ teaspoon
Vanilla extract - ½ teaspoon
Almond - 0.1 teaspoon
Ground Cinnamon - ¼ teaspoon
Powdered Sugar - 1 teaspoon
Bittersweet Chocolate - 3.5 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Cut the black or red plums into wedges (depending on their size - quarters or eighths) and soak them for 15 minutes in a mixture of Armagnac and 1 tablespoon of sugar.

Step 2

Melt the butter and chocolate in separate containers over a water bath.

Step 3

Lightly brush the sides of a baking dish with a pastry brush. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the plums into the prepared dish.

Step 4

Pour the remaining juice from the plums with Armagnac into a mixer and blend with the eggs.

Step 5

Then add the milk, melted butter and chocolate, almond extract, and vanilla extract to the mixer and blend again.

Step 6

Add the flour, salt, and ½ cup of sugar to the liquid and continue mixing in the mixer until smooth.

Step 7

Pour the flour mixture over the plums and place in an oven preheated to 374°F. Bake for about 35 minutes. After baking, let it cool for 15 minutes, sprinkle with powdered sugar, and serve.
