How to Make Plum Crisp

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Butter or spray a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the plums, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
Let the plum mixture stand for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While the plums are standing, prepare the topping. In a food processor, pulse together the flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt.
Add the cold butter, pulsing on and off until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the chopped nuts.
Pour the plum mixture into the prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle evenly with the topping.
Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
