Plum-A-Palooza!

freshly picked plums in bowls  All of the sudden it seems every plum on the tree directly in front of the house was ripe at once.  Pounds and pounds of plump fruit needing attention immediately!

 

 

 

 

I started Monday with plum muffins which I luckily got to share with some friends passing through town.  I used fresh duck eggs in this yummy recipe.

Tuesday is made a delicious plum clafoutis, which is a crustless tart. I used this recipe with almond milk instead of cream/milk and it turned out perfect!

Today I spent a few hours in the hot kitchen canning plum jam.  I made two batches from two recipes, this was a new one for me.
