Cinnamon Plum Bread

Elena Butuc

This was the perfect combination for a very successful plum loaf: texture, taste, color - everything was to our liking. Just for the experiment, next time I won't put cinnamon. Plums are the perfect fruit for this kind of desserts. Their color and taste seem better when cooked than when they are fresh. And my plums were a bit sour and hard, but in the cake they were perfect.
