Description
This is barely a recipe, more accurately it is a suggestion of how to best celebrate the incredibly sweet Reine Claude plums as the seasons change.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 Reine Claudes plums
- 1/2 tbsp dried thyme (or 1tbsp fresh)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F / 176 C / gas mark 4.
- Wash the plums, cut them in halves, and remove the pits. Place them cut side up in a baking dish. Drizzle the olive oil and maple syrup on top and evenly sprinkle the thyme and sea salt over the plums.
- Place the dish in the oven and roast for 15-17 minutes, or until the plums are tender, the juices run off and bubble slightly.
- Serve immediately with yogurt (with a few toasted hazelnuts), vanilla ice cream, granola, oatmeal, or just as is. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a couple of days.
