Yellow Plum Cobbler
A fruity cobbler is one of the quickest, most comfortable and delicious morning sweets you can put on your breakfast table, with short preparation (unlike my Friday's brioche) and a satisfying result! The pastry is a smooth scone dough with sour cream, thrown together in just a few minutes. It turns into a light golden crust lying on top of the fruity filling like fluffy clouds.




INGREDIENTS:
1: yellow plums, sliced, 600g / 1.5 pounds.
2: granulated sugar 4 tablespoons.
3: ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon.
4: plain flour 200g / 7 ounces.
5: granulated sugar 2 tablespoons plus 1 tablespoon for the topping.
6: ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon.
7: baking powder 1 1/2 teaspoons.
8: a pinch of salt.
9: butter, cold, 100g / 3.5 ounces.
10: sour cream 160ml / 5.5 ounces.

INSTRUCTIONS:
1-6: weren't actual instructions
7: Set the oven to 190°C / 375°F (fan assisted oven).
8: Spread the plums in a baking dish and coat with the sugar mixed with cinnamon.
9: For the pastry, combine the dry ingredients. Cut the butter with a knife into the flour until there are just crumbly pieces left. Continue with your fingers, rub the buttery pieces into the flour until combined. Mix in the sour cream with a spoon until combined. Break the soft dough into pieces, gently flatten them and put them on top of the plums, they should be almost covered. Sprinkle with a tablespoon of sugar and some more cinnamon if you like and bake in the oven for 35 minutes or until golden brown on top. Serve warm.
