A couple weeks ago I picked up a rather large basket of plums at the market. Not going to lie, I was mostly drawn to their deeply-hued colour and knew they’d look beautiful on our kitchen counter. What I didn’t realize is how darn tasty they’d be.

As a kid, I was turned off plums and didn’t get back to enjoying them until a few years ago. Let’s just say it had something to do with eating lunch in elementary school, then hopping on the merry-go-round a short while after. You get the picture…
Nonetheless, this batch went rather quickly. Beforehand, I managed to save a few with the intention of making a tart. I baked a plum and berry galette a few years ago and remembered how much we all enjoyed it. Now that I eat gluten-free, I was thinking of ways to make something similar so we weren’t missing out on that deliciousness. That’s when frangipane came to mind.

What is Frangipane Made Of?
I used butter, sugar, honey, almond flour and an egg to make this sweet almond cream (or paste) filling. When combined, these simple ingredients become a tasty filling for tarts, cakes, pastries, as well as this crustless plum dessert baked in ramekins. It’s perfect if you’re eating grain-free and want to use up plums.
Plum frangipane sounds fancy, but I promise it’s super easy to make (keep scrolling for recipe).

Why You’ll Love These Dessert Ramekins
Preparing, baking and serving in the ramekins simplifies the whole process. I especially enjoy how effortless it is arrange the fruit and spread the batter over top. Plus, there’s less cleanup in the end!
If you don’t have any ramekins on hand, you can also use oven-safe small bowls, jars or even mugs. Keep in mind that you may have to adjust the baking time.
For a fall look, go with a moody dark colour like these black ceramic ramekins. They’re ideal for fall entertaining!
Shop Supplies for this Recipe
Once baked, you’re left with syrupy and tangy fruit covered in rich batter that puffs up somewhere between custard and cake. Let’s not forget to mention those crunchy almonds. Yum yum!

Add the Toppings
I like to serve this plum dessert warm with a light dusting of confectioner’s sugar and small scoop of vanilla ice cream. Slightly rustic and perfectly fall.
