Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4. Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Whisk in almonds, honey, vanilla seeds and eggs. Place mixture in a greased cake tin and add the plum quarters. Bake for 20–25 mins, brushing with glaze towards the end of cooking. Remove from oven, cool, then brush over more glaze.

2. joanne Sun 06 Sep 2009 @ 13:30 i thought it would have had some flour in it because it just didnt happen. not a bit like a cake more like a soggy fruit quiche.
