Recipe View 15 mins Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm, preferably with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. (15 minutes)

For extra flavor, try adding a splash of almond extract to the batter along with the vanilla.
If you don't have plums, other stone fruits like peaches or nectarines work beautifully in this recipe.
Be careful not to overbake the buckle, as it can become dry. The toothpick test is your best guide.
The crumb topping can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

    I made this with peaches instead of plums and it was delicious. Thanks for a great recipe!

  • Murray Fay

    The buckle was a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time I'll reduce the sugar in the topping.
