I found these giant plums while shopping and immediately thought, these belong in a dessert. I had some egg whites hanging out in the fridge, and that’s how this Plum Almond Financier Cake happened. Jammy plums, buttery almond cake and yes, it disappeared fast. 😍

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 40–45 minutes
Total Time: 55–60 minutes
Servings: 6

Ingredients

* ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
* 1 cup almond flour
* ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
* ¾ cup granulated sugar (powdered sugar can also be used)
* 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* Pinch of salt
* 4 large egg whites
* ½ lb quetsche plums, pitted and sliced
* ¼ cup sliced almonds

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a small pie dish or an 8 x 8-inch square baking pan.
2. Add the butter to a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, swirling occasionally, until it foams and the milk solids turn golden brown and smell nutty. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
3. Place the sliced quetsche plums in an even layer on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
4. In a bowl, whisk together the almond flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
5. Add the egg whites and mix until combined. Slowly stir in the slightly cooled brown butter until you have a smooth batter.
6. Pour the batter over the plums and gently spread it into an even layer. Sprinkle the sliced almonds over the top.
7. Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set. Because the plums release their juices as they bake, the bottom will be wonderfully soft and jammy.
8. Let the cake cool for about 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm on its own or with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
