Mirabelle plum upside-down cake

Gâteau renversé aux mirabelles

Ce gâteau est le premier gâteau que j’ai fait à la sortie de la maternitéune simple envie de me remettre à faire ce que j’aime, et de nous faire plaisir à Monsieur et à moi. C’est donc comme ça que je vous annonce l’arrivée de mini Mademoiselle au sein de notre famille, un joli bébé qui est venu au monde le 6 septembre dernier ! Cette petite puce occupe bien nos journées, donc désolée si je ne réponds plus toujours aux gentils commentaires que vous me laissez !

Repassons donc à la recette, une base de quatre quart (because it's easy to make and it's really good !), garnished with pretty Mirabelle plums, for a delicious cake ! So yes I know it's a four quarter, but since I don't really like sweet desserts, I lowered the dose of sugar by about 30 %, but here you really do as you feel !

Mirabelle plum upside-down cake

Ingredients (for a springform pan)

  • 400 g mirabelle plums
  • 4 eggs
  • The weight of eggs in flour
  • The weight of eggs in sugar (30% less for me)
  • The weight of buttered eggs
  • 1 packet of yeast
  • 1 pinch of salt

Description

Preheat the oven to 150°.

Mix the flour and baking powder together and set aside.

Separate the egg yolks from the whites then beat the yolks with the sugar until the mixture whitens. Add the previously melted butter, alternating with the flour-yeast mixture.

Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt then add them to the previous mixture.

Cut the Mirabelle plums in half, pit them and place them cut side up in the bottom of a buttered-floured or non-stick baking pan. Pour the batter on top.

Bake 50 minutes.
