Spicy Oven-Roasted Plums
2
JJOYB53
"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!"

Honestly, the cumin had me concerned, but not to worry, this was delicious. The sauce thickened somewhat after cooling down a bit. Give this a try, it's not only tasty and easy, but GOOD FOR Y...

Fast, easy, and very good -- my toddlers even licked it up! But I do think it could be even better if it had a companion flavor to complement the spicy sweet-tartness of the plums. Next time, I ...

Delicious as is! I eat this over vanilla bean ice cream. I also didn't have cardamom -- but it still tasted great.
