Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup (packed) dark brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup fresh thyme sprigs
6 large assorted ripe but firm plums (about 2 pounds), halved, pitted
Crème fraîche
Additional fresh thyme sprigs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 475°F. Stir first 4 ingredients in large ovenproof nonstick skillet over high heat until butter melts. Cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly (mixture will bubble vigorously). Add plum halves, cut side down. Cook plums without stirring for 2 minutes. Turn plums over and transfer skillet to oven. Roast until caramel is deep brown, checking frequently to prevent burning, about 4 minutes.

Several years ago I was looking for a recipe to take advantage of our bumper crop of plums, and came across a recipe similar to this. After tweaking a bit, I have come up with a very versatile version that my family and friends love. Season with ground white pepper and use it as a side dish for pork or chicken. Sprinkle with toasted almonds and spoon it over vanilla bean ice cream, angel food, or pound cake for dessert! Play around with the spice combination by adding cloves, allspice, or cayenne. Be adventurous!

  • Toss the plums with a little sugar and cinnamon before roasting. This will help to caramelize the plums and give them a delicious flavor.
  • Roast the plums at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help to create a slightly charred exterior while keeping the plums juicy on the inside.
  • Serve the roasted plums with a dollop of crème fraîche or whipped cream. This will help to balance out the sweetness of the plums and add a touch of richness.

Conclusion:

Roasted plums with crème fraîche is a simple but delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The roasted plums are sweet, juicy, and slightly charred, while the crème fraîche is rich and creamy. This dessert is sure to please everyone at your table.
