Ingredients

  • 1 cube fresh yeast (42 g)
  • 220 ml lukewarm milk
  • 750 g spelt whole-grain flour
  • 200 g coconut blossom sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 200 g softened butter
  • 2 kg plums
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 50 g ground almonds

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Dissolve the yeast in the milk. Sift 550 g of flour and combine with the yeast-milk mixture, 50 g coconut blossom sugar, egg, yolk, salt, and 50 g softened butter to form a smooth dough. Shape the finished dough into a round, dust with flour, and let rise in a warm place for about an hour until doubled.

  2. 2.

    Process 150 g softened butter, cinnamon, 150 g coconut blossom sugar, 200 g flour, and ground almonds into crumb topping. Rub the mixture between your hands repeatedly until it takes on a crumbly consistency like streusel. Cover and refrigerate the crumbs.

  3. 3.

    Wash, halve, and pit the plums.

  4. 4.

    Knead the dough again and let rise for another 10 minutes. Then roll out evenly to fit a baking sheet, place on parchment paper, and prickle with a fork several times. Arrange the plum halves in a tiled pattern over the dough. Sprinkle with the crumb topping and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (fan: 160°C; gas: level 2-3) for 35–40 minutes.
