Fluffy Plum Upside-Down Cake

Gâteau moelleux renversé aux prunes

Ce jour-là, avec Monsieur, nous étions en montagne en promenade autour du lac de Monteynard quand nous sommes tombés sur des pruniers sauvages.  Nous avons donc cueillis ces petites prunes rouges très acidulées.

De retour à la maison, j’ai eu envie de tester un gâteau renversé avec une base de biscuit à l’amande pour s’allier complètement avec les prunes.

Le résultat est parfait entre le fondant du biscuit et l’acidité de la prune mais Monsieur à quand même trouver ça un peu « fizz » comme il dit, then you can add a little sugar on your plums before pouring the biscuit mixture.

Description

Preheat the oven to 170°.

Line a rectangular pan with parchment paper or use a non-stick pan.

Wash and pit the plums then arrange them at the bottom of the mold. Sprinkle with 25 g ground almonds and a little sugar if desired.
