Easy Plum Cake Recipe

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.

Gently fold in the sliced plums.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serve slices of the plum cake on their own or with a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
