Time 1h25m

Yield 20 prunes

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup port wine
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 cloves
3 strips orange zest
1 cinnamon stick
Pinch kosher salt
20 pitted prunes
4 ounces Parmigiano-Reggiano, cut into bite-size pieces
5 thin slices Prosciutto di Parma, sliced into quarters

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine the port, sugar, cider vinegar, cloves, orange zest, cinnamon, salt and 1 cup water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the prunes; simmer until softened and plumped, about 10 minutes. Allow the prunes to cool in the poaching liquid for 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the prunes to a plate and allow to cool completely.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Using a paring knife, make a slit from stem to tip in each of the prunes. Stuff each with a piece of Parmesan and wrap in a quarter slice of prosciutto. Place the wrapped prunes, seam-side down, on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake until the prosciutto is crispy and the Parmesan is soft and melted, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

These were a nice change from the usual appetizers I serve. I'll definitely be making them again.

I'm not a huge fan of plums, but I really enjoyed these. The prosciutto and Parmesan cheese really balanced out the sweetness of the plums.

These plums are so easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I usually make a double batch because they go so fast.

I've made this recipe a few times and it's always a hit. I love the combination of sweet and salty. I usually serve them as an appetizer, but they're also great as a snack or even a dessert.

These were way too sweet for my taste. I think I'll stick to savory dishes in the future.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my plums turned out really bland. I think I might have used the wrong type of plums.

These were a bit too salty for me, but my husband loved them. I think I'll try making them again with less prosciutto next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the plums turned out great. They were a little too sweet for my taste, but I think I'll try them again with less sugar next time.

These plums are the perfect appetizer or snack. They're sweet, savory, and salty all at the same time. I highly recommend them!

Easy to make and so tasty! I used fresh plums from my garden and they were perfect. Will definitely make again.

These plums were a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of sweet and savory was perfect, and the prosciutto added a nice salty crunch. I will definitely be making these again.
