How to Make German Plum Coffee Cake With Almonds Pflaumenkuchen

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and flour a standard 15x10 inch jelly roll pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-5 minutes with an electric mixer.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in the lemon juice.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared jelly roll pan and spread evenly.
  8. Arrange the sliced plums over the batter.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool slightly in the pan before sprinkling with the toasted almond slices and dusting generously with powdered sugar.
  11. Once completely cool, cut into squares and serve. Enjoy!
