Ingredients
- 6 ripe but firm plums, halved and pitted
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- crème fraîche to taste
- optional: fresh ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Place the plums cut side up on the baking sheet. Spread a thin layer of butter on top of each plum half and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar. Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast the plums for 15 minutes.
- Remove the tray from the oven and allow the plums to cool briefly. Use a spatula to carefully move the plums onto serving plates without disturbing the gooey brown sugar tops.
- Use a spoon to drizzle a small amount of crème fraîche over each plum. If using, top with a small amount of fresh ground black pepper. Serve immediately.
Notes
Whipped cream, sour cream or mascarpone can be used in place of crème fraîche.
