How to make Oma's German Plum Cake Recipe

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
3 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp vanilla sugar (optional)
pinch salt
1/2 cup Greek Yogurt
1/3 cup milk
1/3 cup sunflower oil (I use light olive oil)
about 2 lbs prune plums, pitted, quartered
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup cold butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 F.
  • Into a large mixing bowl, mix 2 1/3 cups flour, baking powder, 1/3 cup sugar, vanilla sugar (if using) and salt.
  • Add yogurt, milk, and oil and using dough hook, mix for a minute or so until dough holds together (do not over-beat!) ... if you wish, you can just mix it in a bowl with a wooden spoon, and knead lightly with hands till it holds together.
  • Press dough into a 9x13 inch pan or divide dough into two if using 2 spring-form pans.
  • Place plum quarters in rows on top of dough.
  • Mix together the 2 cups flour, 1 cup sugar, and butter to make the streusel dough. Crumble over top of plums.
  • Bake at 350 F for about 50 - 60 minutes or until top is lightly browned.
  • Let cool and serve.
  • Serves about 10
