For the cake (20 × 26 cm tin):
For the crumble topping:
A deliciously soft and moist cake topped with juicy plums and a golden, buttery crumble. Made with sour cream and Gellwe Baking Powder with Vanilla Sugar 2-in-1, this easy homemade bake combines a light, fluffy sponge with sweet, slightly tart fruit and a wonderfully crisp topping. Perfect for afternoon tea, family gatherings or a comforting autumn treat.
Prepare the cake batter. Beat the eggs with the sugar until light and fluffy. Melt the butter in a small saucepan and leave to cool. Mix the flour with the Gellwe Baking Powder with Vanilla Sugar 2-in-1.
Add the sour cream and melted butter to the beaten eggs. Finally, add the flour mixture and mix briefly until combined. Transfer the batter to a 20 × 26 cm baking tin lined with baking parchment. Arrange the washed plums, cut into quarters or eighths, closely together over the surface of the batter.
Prepare the crumble topping. Place all the crumble ingredients in a bowl and mix with an electric mixer or rub together with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Do not overmix, as the mixture may form a ball of dough. Sprinkle the crumble evenly over the cake.
Place in an oven preheated to 180°C and bake for approximately 50 minutes.
Enjoy!
