“Plumble” is the name my husband gave this cake. A sour cream and almond coffee cake with a layer of moist plums in the middle and a cinnamon crumble topping. It is sooo good!
I’ve made it here in a 9 inch spring form pan which makes it easy to remove. I also like to make individual tea cakes using jumbo tulip cupcake wrappers (makes 12), either way, scrumptious!
