Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup fresh thyme sprig
6 large ripe but firm plums, halved and pitted
creme fraiche (optional)
additional fresh thyme sprig (to garnish) (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven the 475°F.
  • In a large, ovenproof skillet (nonstick is easiest) over medium-high heat, stir in the brown sugar, honey, unsalted butter, and thyme.
  • Allow butter to melt and cook for 2 additional minutes, stirring constantly. The butter mixture will be very bubbly.
  • Add the plum halves, cut side down, to the butter mixture.
  • Cook the plums for 2 minutes, undisturbed.
  • Turn the plums over, cut side up, and transfer the skillet to the oven.
  • Roast the plums until the caramel sauce is a deep brown color, between 4 and 6 minutes. Check frequently to prevent burning.
  • Remove the plum halves to plates and spoon the sauce over the plums, leaving the thyme sprigs in the skillet.
  • Serve warm with a dollop of crème fraîche (optional) and an additional thyme sprig for garnish.

These plums were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less honey next time.

I wasn't sure what to expect from these plums, but I was pleasantly surprised. They were really delicious and I loved the combination of flavors. I will definitely be making these again.

These plums were so easy to make and they turned out so well. I used fresh thyme from my garden and it really made a difference. I will definitely be making these again.

These honey-roasted plums were the perfect summer treat! They were sweet, juicy, and had a lovely hint of thyme. I served them with a dollop of whipped cream and they were gone in minutes.
