Ingredients

  • 6 cups sliced plums
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced plums, granulated sugar, flour, and lemon juice. Stir until the plums are evenly coated. Transfer the mixture to a 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking dish.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well. Add the cold cubed butter and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut it into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the plums in the baking dish.
  5. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the plum filling is bubbling and the topping is golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
  7. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired. Enjoy!
