Plum Torte With Peeled Italian Plums Recipe

Name: Plum Torte With Peeled Italian Plums
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 9 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened; 1/2 cup white sugar; 2 tablespoons white sugar; 1 tablespoon vanilla sugar; 1 pinch salt; 2 eggs; 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour; 4 teaspoons baking powder; 1/2 cup milk; 2 pounds Italian plums - peeled, halved, and pitted; 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar

Servings: persons

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9-inch springform pans.
2
Cream butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Add 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, vanilla sugar, and salt; beat well to combine. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
3
Sift flour and baking powder together into a bowl. Mix into the batter in batches, alternating with milk; the batter will be quite thick. Spoon batter into the prepared pans. Place plums close together, cut-side down, over the batter.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto serving plates or cooling racks. Dust with confectioners' sugar and let cool completely.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
