Instructions

1. 1.Before you start close all the windows and make sure there is no cold breeze. Always cover yeast dough with a kitchen towel when set aside to rise!
2. 2.Mix the yeast with milk and sugar in a glass or steel bowl. Stir well until combined and set the mix aside for 10 min in a warm place. Then add half of the wheat flour and stir well and set aside for another 30 min.
3. 3.While waiting remove the stones from the plums and cut plums into quarters.
4. 4.Go back to the dough, add the remaining flour, fat and salt and knead all together until having a firm dough. This will take at least 15 min. and might be a bit tricky the first time you do it. You want to have a dough which does not stick to your hands anymore and feels elastic. When you shape a “dough-ball” and press your finger inside, the dough should rise back. If it seems a bit too dry add 10ml water, if it seems too wet add 10g of flour. Now put the ball back on the bowl and put it back to its warm place for another 30 min.
5. 5.Back to the plums: put them in a pot together with the sugar and bring to cook. Cook for about 20 min. while stirring well. Set aside and let them cool 10 min.
6. 6.Your dough should have doubled in size by now. Cut the ball in 2 pieces. Be careful and don’t knead the risen yeast dough before using! Take a square pan (I used a pan of 30cm x 20 cm) and grease it well. You can also apply backing paper inside the pan but make sure you cover the sides as well. Now put half of the dough inside and dispense it in the pan by kneading it from inside to outside.
7. 7.The dough is very elastic and will come back in the middle so you need to be a bit patient.
8. 8.Take this “sheet” of dough out of the pan and place it on a bigger baking pan and do the same with the other part of the dough. You might want to grease the pan again if the first dough soaked everything.
9. 9.Once the dough covers the whole surface of the pan add the cooked plums.
10. 10.Now take the first part of the dough and place it over the plums. If its losing shape don’t worry, just make sure there are no holes. Now take a knife and cut the cake in 12 square pieces as if it would be done already. Then, guess what, put it back to the warm place again and let it rice another 30 min.
11. 11.After 30 min the dough has doubled again. Now bake for 20 min in the oven with 180 degrees Celsius. The dough rises again and should be golden brown.
12. 12.Then turn off the oven but leave the cake inside for a final 10 min. The cake might lose shape if you take it out too fast.
13. 13.Before service you can powder the cake with some icing/powdered sugar (not a must – it just looks nice). It can be eaten as cake or like a breakfast roll over a few days.
14. 14.If you prefer to eat them warm reheat individual pieces in the microwave for 20 sec before serving. You can also add vanilla ice on it and have it a dessert.
