Does anyone have a plum cake recipe?

Actiongirl_2

I have a plum tree and eating them isn't using them fast enough. I have a friend coming tomorrow and would like to make a plum cake. We also have two toddlers who will be sharing the cake, so it needs to be fairly sweet!

I have searched the recipes but couldn't find anything.
Thanks in advance, AG.

Hi, apologies but I can;t remember the rules abotu links etc but if you go to bbc food website, type in plum cake and select the one called Autumn crunch plum cake its a sure fire winner. The recipe is for a loaf tin so if you want to make a round cake then double the ingredients

sorry to ask but why does it have to be failry sweet for little ones - surely U'd want it the other way round?

Because the plums are a bit on the tart side and I can't see it appealing otherwise.
