This delicious, buttery cake can be made with any fruit - fresh or tinned. It also works well with rhubarb (lightly cook first) and add lashings of custard!

Super easy brilliant recipe, this is my base cake for different fruit options. I always double the cake recipe and bake for longer approx 1hr 20 mins depending on moisture from fruit. I love the black doris plums with or without sugar/cinnamon mix, I just spoon over plum syrup after using the whole tin of plums. Have also used pineapple rings, apricots, and recently a full layer of thawed blueberries, Really delicious.
Pre-heat the oven to 180ºC. Grease and line a 20cm round cake tin.
Topping Halve and stone the plums, then slice. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon, set aside while preparing the batter.
Cake Beat the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time until mixture is combined. Mix in sifted flour and baking powder. Pour the batter into the prepared tin, arrange the plums over the mixture.
Bake for 45 - 50 mins. Dust with icing sugar and serve warm or cold with plain yoghurt or whipped cream.
Easy and yummy. Looked similar to picture. Will make again
