Just plum good……

I bought several black plums over the weekend at a roadside stand on my way back from the lake to where we were staying.  They were perfect,firm and had the most beautiful color.  I couldn’t wait to use them!

Sometimes I forget until it’s too late,you know how that is.  So this morning I made a huge mess of pancakes for the boys.  I am taking requests these next few weeks until we go back to school ????

I sauteed these plums in a tablespoon of pure maple syrup and a pinch of cinnamon.  Poured over a hot stack of pancakes is was more like a dessert really.  We loved it.  Having a nice long breakfast together was a great start to my day!

Somtimes I like to sautee plums in a few ounces of black tea or a hibiscus tea.  Add a little sugar (very little….they don’t need much) cinnamon and a pinch of cardamom and that is a new twist on our favorite pancake and waffle topping.
