My grandmother taught me this recipe years ago, and it's become one of my favorite desserts to make when plums are in season. The beauty of this plum pudding is how incredibly simple it is, ready from start to finish in just 50 minutes. Fresh plums are packed with vitamin C and fiber, making this treat feel a bit more wholesome than your typical dessert. The soft fruit gets coated in a warm, cinnamon spiced syrup, then topped with a fluffy baking mix batter that bakes into something wonderfully cake like. It's the kind of homey dessert that doesn't require any fancy techniques or hard to find ingredients, just pantry staples and whatever plums you have on hand.
