This cake is actually known as Zwetschgendatschi in Bavaria, where it is most popular. Roughly translated from Bavarian to German, it would be called Pflaumenkuchen or plum cake in English. BUT Zwetschgen aren't ordinary plums, a Datschi isn't really a Kuchen, and a Kuchen is most definitely not a cake! Or at least not a tall, spongy cake – it's flatter.
Steps to make Plum Cake:
- Soak all the dry fruits in orange juice for minimum 2 to 3 hours or if you have time soak overnight in fridge.
- For sugar syrup melt granulated sugar until golden colour and then add hot water and mix vigorously to make syrup.
- Keep aside and let it cool.
- Now in a bowl take all wet ingredients except vinegar and beat until sugar dissolves.
- Sift all dry ingredients and mix well. Do not overmix.
- Then add the cooled sugar syrup.
- Add all the soaked dry fruits. (squeeze properly and then add)
- Preheat the oven at 180 degrees celcius.
- Now add vinegar generously mix and pour the batter in mould and bake it at 180 degree for 45 mins.
- Ready to serve and ENJOY!
BUT Zwetschgen aren't ordinary plums, a Datschi isn't really a Kuchen, and a Kuchen is most definitely not a cake! Or at least not a tall, spongy cake – it's flatter. Combine cinnamon and remaining sugar; sprinkle over plums. For topping, in a small bowl, combine flour and sugar; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Plum Cake is a delicious coffee cake made with a simple batter, fresh plums, and a cookie-like nut-free streusel topping!
