Stage 1 - 15 min.

Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C).

Butter an oven-proof dish and make a layer of 5 cups plums (stoned and cut in half).

Remarks

This recipe can be varied with different fruit, preferably in season. I have a weakness for raspberries, as their touch of acidity marries so well with the sweet financier mixture.

Keeping
