Ingredients

Streusel

I'm basing this on a recipe from a friend of the family. It's not a tall, fluffy yeast cake. It's a fairly low but light cake. I made mine with plums and a coconut streusel. I don't know how many plums I used, though, because (I confess!) I forgot to weigh them :(

I baked the cake in a pan of about 35x30 cm.

Yeast cake with plums

Instructions:

Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix only lightly, then cover and set aside in a warm place for 4 hours. Next, knead into a uniform dough and spread it in the pan.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Mix all the streusel ingredients together. Arrange plum halves on top of the dough, sprinkle with the streusel and bake for about 1 hour.

Enjoy!
