Brown Sugar Plums with Soured Cream

Delicious warm sugared plums.

Serves: 4
Preparation Time: 5 mins
Cooking Time: 25 mins

What you will need:

  • 8 essential WaitroseEnglish Plums, halved and stoned
  • 2 tbsp light brown muscovado sugar
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 300ml essential Waitrose Soured Cream
  • 2 tbsp demerara sugar

What to do:

  • Heat the oven to 220˚C, gas mark 7. Arrange the plums in the base of a gratin dish to make a tight fitting single layer. Mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over the plums. Bake for 20–25 minutes until tender and golden.
  • Spoon the soured cream over the top and sprinkle with the demerara sugar. For a crunchier sugar topping, you could place the dish under a hot grill until the sugar melts, but it’s not essential. Serve with shortbread biscuits.
