A simple homemade cake made with creamy sweet cheese, a soft vanilla batter and fresh plums. The semolina helps absorb excess juice from the fruit, leaving you with a delicious golden cake that’s perfect for autumn.
Wash the plums thoroughly.
Remove the stones and cut the plums in half.
Set aside while you prepare the batter.
Place the well-drained cottage cheese in a large bowl.
Mash it with a fork until mostly smooth.
Add the eggs and caster sugar.
Mix well until combined.
Pour in the oil or melted butter and add the vanilla essence.
Add the baking powder and flour.
Mix until you have a thick, evenly combined batter.
Line an ovenproof baking tray with baking paper.
Transfer the batter to the tray and spread it evenly.
Sprinkle the semolina over the surface.
Arrange the plum halves on top, gently pressing them into the batter.
