PLUM-AND-BLACKBERRY CORNMEAL-ALMOND CRUMB BARS
Ripe plums are very juicy, without much structure, so they're best combined with another stone fruit or berries -- in this instance, plump, sweet blackberries. If you can only find tart blackberries, use an equal amount of blueberries. Nectarines or peaches are also lovely.

Steps:
- Crust:Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter an 8-by-8-by-2-inch cake pan. Line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides; butter parchment. Spread almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet; toast until golden brown and fragrant, about 10 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes, then coarsely chop. Whisk together flour, cornmeal, and salt.
- Beat butter with sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down bowl. Add flour mixture; beat until dough forms clumps but does not completely hold together. Press 3 cups of dough mixture into bottom and 1 inch up sides of prepared pan. Stir almonds into remaining dough mixture.
- Filling: Stir together plums, blackberries, sugar, flour, lemon juice, pepper, and salt. Pour into crust. Crumble remaining crust mixture over top, squeezing to create clumps. Bake until bubbling in center and crust is golden, 1 hour to 1 hour, 10 minutes (if browning too quickly, tent with foil after about 50 minutes). Let cool 1 hour. Remove from pan and transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely, about 2 hours. Cut into squares.
PLUM-CARDAMOM CRUMBLE WITH PISTACHIOS RECIPE
On the rare occasion you need an "excuse" to use up fruit before it goes bad, well, that's what crumbles are for. All of these juices will overflow a standard pie dish and you'll end up with burnt fruit caramel on your oven floor, so make sure to use a deep pie dish (an 8x8x2" baking dish will work well too).

Steps:
- Place a rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 350°F. Toss plums, lemon zest, lemon juice, cornstarch, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. cardamom in a large bowl; let sit until some juices accumulate, 5-10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, pulse flour and remaining 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. cardamom in a food processor to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture is very sandy and starts to form larger clumps.
- Transfer plums and their juices to a 9"-diameter deep pie dish (all of those fruit juices will overflow a standard one) or an 8x8x2" baking dish. Scatter topping over fruit, squeezing small fistfuls in your hand to bring it together, then breaking into smaller pieces of varying sizes. Sprinkle pistachios evenly over topping.
- Bake crumble until juices are thickened and bubbling and top is golden brown, 40-45 minutes. Let cool slightly.

Steps:
- Butter and line a 30 x 20cm baking tin with baking parchment, leaving an overhang so you can lift out the traybake later, then butter the parchment. Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
- To make the pastry, put all the ingredients, except the vanilla, into a food processor and blitz until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add a couple of teaspoons of very cold water and the vanilla, then blitz again. The mixture should come together into a ball. If it doesn't, add a little more cold water and blitz again. Press into the tin using your fingers and the back of a large spoon, then bake in the oven for 15-18 mins until pale golden. Leave to cool for 15 mins.
- Stir the cardamom seeds and the lemon juice into the jam until smooth. Spread the jam over the pastry base, leaving a 2cm border all the way round. Cut each plum half into 1cm slices. Lay these in rows, overlapping, on top of the jam.
- To make the crumble, put the flour, ground almonds, butter, sugar and lemon zest into a food processor (you don't need to wash it out first), and blitz until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs. Tip this over the plums and scatter the flaked almonds on top. Bake for about 35-40 mins until the top is golden and the plums are tender. Leave to cool completely in the tin.
- Carefully lift the traybake out of the tin onto your work surface using the baking parchment. Leave for a few hours so the fruit can settle. Cut into squares or rectangles, then sift some icing sugar over the top, if you like.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe black plums. If you can't find black plums, you can substitute another type of plum, such as red plums or Italian plums.
- If you don't have cardamom, you can substitute another spice, such as cinnamon or nutmeg.
- Be sure to use cold butter when making the crumble topping. This will help to create a flaky texture.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can make the crumble topping by hand. Simply use a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Don't overmix the crumble topping. Overmixing will make the topping tough.
- Bake the crumble until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Serve the crumble warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
Black plum cardamom crumble is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet and tart plums are perfectly complemented by the warm spices in the cardamom. The crumble topping adds a crunchy texture and a touch of sweetness. This dessert is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
