how to cook Easy Plum Jam Oatmeal Cake?

STEP 1

Let’s get started by preheating the oven to 180°C (350⁰F). Give the plums a good wash, then cut them in half lengthwise and remove the pits. After that, slice each half lengthwise into two parts.

TIPS: If you don’t have fresh plums on hand, frozen ones can be a great substitute.

STEP 2

Next, grab a saucepan and toss in the chopped plums. Add some sugar and water, give it a good stir, and place it over medium heat. Let the mixture come to a boil and cook it for about 15-20 minutes.

STEP 3

Once the plums are done, let them cool completely and then chop them up using an immersion blender. Pop the resulting plum jam into the refrigerator to chill.

TIPS: Don’t own an immersion blender but still want to make a delicious plum jam? No problem! A food processor, chopper, or even a meat grinder can do the trick. The possibilities are endless!

TIPS: You have the option to use store-bought jam or marmalade for this recipe. It’s a convenient choice if you want to make this recipe faster.

STEP 4

In a separate bowl, mix together ground oatmeal, ground nuts, and cinnamon using a whisk.

TIPS: Feel free to choose your favorite nuts or peanuts, ensuring they are finely ground. You can grind the nuts in a coffee grinder or kitchen chopper. Alternatively, nut flour like almond flour can be used as a substitute for ground nuts.

TIPS: If you don’t have pre-ground oatmeal, no worries! You can easily grind it yourself using a coffee grinder or food chopper.

STEP 5

Now, take a large bowl and crack in the eggs. Add some sugar and beat it all together using a mixer until it becomes a fluffy pale mass.

STEP 6

Add a portion of the nut-oat mixture to the egg-sugar mixture, pour in some melted butter. Then add the remaining nut-oat mixture. Mix everything together thoroughly.

TIPS: Melt your butter either on the stove or in the microwave – whichever is more convenient for you.

TIPS: Instead of using butter, you can opt for good quality margarine. It works just as well!

STEP 7

Grease a 20cm x 20cm baking tin with butter and line it with parchment paper. Spread the dough evenly onto the prepared baking tin and press it firmly to the bottom using a spatula.

STEP 8

Place the baking tin with the dough into the preheated oven at 180°C (350⁰F) and bake it for 15 minutes.

TIPS: Instead of using butter, you can opt for good quality margarine. It works just as well!

STEP 10

Once the dough is done baking, spread the chilled plum jam onto the crust and evenly distribute the topping on top. Give it a light press.

TIPS: Don’t limit yourself to plum jam. Feel free to experiment with any homemade or store-bought jam of your choice.

STEP 11

Put the baking tin with the cake back into the oven at 180°C (350⁰F) and bake it for another 20 minutes.

STEP 12

To ensure easy removal, leave the cake in the baking tin for 10 minutes. Once done, take it out of the tin and let it cool completely.

Afterward, sprinkle some powdered sugar on the cooled cake and cut it into equal pieces.
