Got to get rid of some bottled plums to make space for this year's crop! Thought of making a cake using plums as the liquid. Anyone have any idea what other ingredients there ought to be? Flour presumably, (anyone guessed whether I'm a regular cook or not yet?) Thanks in advance.
 
It's me again! :ermm::ohmy::LOL:

A couple more thoughts on using your bottled plums.

If the plums are firm you could drain them and make a traditional pineapple upside down cake recipe, swap out the pineapple for the plums.

Drain and puree the plums, use them in place of the applesauce in a traditional applesauce cake recipe or in place of the pureed bananas in a banana bread or cake.

You could also puree the drained prunes and use them as a substitute for half of the oil or butter in a spice cake, chocolate cake or brownie recipe.
 
I thought the same as Aunt Bea. Upside down cake also because you could eat half and freeze half for another time. Wonderful as a warmed dessert with ice-crem
