Zwetschgenkuchen mit Streusel/Plum cake with Streusel

Happy Labour Day Weekend!!

Summer break is almost over; another new school year starting and because this will be my son’s final year, grade 12; it will be extra special. Time sure goes by too quick sometimes, lol.

I’m loving all the wonderful local fruits we have in season now and I couldn’t resist to make a plum cake. A Streusel-topping was my sons wish:)

Super yummy, I hope you’ll give it a try!

 

Zwetschgenkuchen mit Streusel/Plum cake with Streusel

Ingredients:

• 250 g spelt flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• Pinch of salt
• 1 egg
• 80 ml maple syrup
• 100 g butter, soft
• about 18 plums, cut in halves

Streusel:

• 60 ml maple syrup
• 100 g butter, cold
• 150 g spelt flour
• 1 tsp cinnamon

-Flour and grease a 22 cm Springform.

-Whisk  the butter with the egg and maple syrup. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt, then add to the butter mix, stir until well combined.

-Roll out about a 1/3 directly onto the bottom of the Springform, I used my hands, then close the form and line the sides with the rest of the dough, about half way up.

-Fill the form with the plums. Combine all the ingredients for the Streusel and spread evenly onto the plums.

-Bake in preheated oven, 350 F / 180 C, for about 55 minutes.

 

Enjoy!
