I'm hungry for something fruity and sweet!.!.!. I have three plums, and thats about it for fruit!. Do you have any creative and yummy plum recipes!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
The Plum Upside Down Cake sounds awesome, but 3 plums doesn't equal 2 lbs I'm afraid! Consider peeling and slicing the plums, then sauteeing them in butter and brown sugar!. Add a pinch of cinnamon and a dash of vanilla!. "Stew" until fruit is softened and thickened!. Pour over vanilla ice cream or serve with cookies or poundcake!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
