Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Grease a 9-inch springform pan. (Alternatively, the cake may be made in a 9-inch cake pan or pie pan and served directly from the pan.)
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, and salt.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or beaters, cream the butter and 1 cup of the sugar until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and beat on low speed until well combined. Gradually add the flour mixture, alternating with the milk, and beat on low speed until smooth. (Note: the batter will be quite thick.)
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and smooth the top with an offset spatula. Arrange the plums on top, skin side up, in a circular pattern so that they mostly cover the batter. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar over the plums.
- Bake for 60 to 70 minutes, until golden on top and set in the center.
- When the cake is hot out of the oven, run a knife around the edges of the pan and then remove the springform edge, leaving the base in place (if using a springform pan). Let the cake cool on a rack completely. Slice and serve with ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
- Note: This cake keeps well, loosely covered at room temperature, for several days.
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cake can be frozen for up to 3 months. After it is completely cooled, double-wrap it securely with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap, or place it in heavy-duty freezer bag. Thaw overnight on the countertop before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 9-inch-diameter springform pan. Whisk first 3 ingredients in small bowl to blend. Using electric mixer, beat butter in large bowl until fluffy. Beat in 3/4 cup sugar. Add eggs 1 at a time, then lemon juice and lemon peel, beating until blended after each addition. Beat in flour mixture. Spread batter in prepared pan.
- Press plum wedges halfway into batter in concentric circles, spacing slightly apart. Mix remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon in small bowl; sprinkle over plums. Bake until cake is browned on top and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Cut around cake; release pan sides. Serve cake warm or at room temperature.
Tips:
- Use a bundt pan with a capacity of at least 10 cups. A larger pan will result in a flatter cake.
- Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients to blend together more easily and create a smoother batter.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter cake.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together before adding them to the batter. This will help to ensure that the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Add the cinnamon and sugar mixture to the batter and mix until just combined. Overmixing will result in a tough cake.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar or drizzle with a glaze before serving.
Conclusion:
This cinnamon sugar plum cake is a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a tender crumb and a sweet cinnamon sugar topping. It is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
