Fruity Plum Sheet Cake with Spelt Base – Grandma’s Secret Recipe Rediscovered

Fruity Plum Sheet Cake with Spelt Base – Grandma’s Secret Recipe Rediscovered

A plum sheet cake just like grandma used to bake brings back memories of warm summer days and the wonderful scent from the kitchen. Today, we’re bringing this classic recipe back – with a modern twist: a fluffy spelt base, baked with freshly milled flour from a Salzburg grain mill. This is how tradition tastes twice as good.

Why Spelt? A Healthy Base for the Plum Cake

Spelt flour is not only nutty and aromatic but also particularly easy to digest. When you mill the grain yourself, for example with a Salzburg grain mill, you get especially fresh flour full of nutrients. This awareness of natural ingredients gives the plum cake its special touch.

Ingredients for the Plum Cake with Spelt Base

• 500 g plums, halved and pitted
• 250 g spelt flour (preferably freshly milled)
• 100 g butter (soft)
• 80 g sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 packet of vanilla sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 pinch of salt

Preparation – Step by Step

1. Preheat the oven to 180 °C (356 °F, top/bottom heat).
2. Cream butter, sugar, vanilla sugar, and egg.
3. Mix spelt flour, baking powder, and salt and knead into the butter mixture until a smooth dough forms.
4. Roll out the dough onto a greased baking tray.
5. Arrange the plums closely together on top of the dough.
6. Optional: Sprinkle with a little cinnamon and sugar.
7. Bake the cake for about 30-35 minutes until golden brown.

Baking with Tradition and Quality

Freshly milled flour, as produced with the Salzburg grain mills, gives the plum cake its special aroma. The direct connection to the raw materials creates a conscious relationship with your own food. A plum cake made with spelt and fresh flour brings a taste of home and quality to every bite.

Try it out and bring a piece of childhood back to your plate – fruity, juicy, and simply delicious!
