DOUGH
- 450 g all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 200 ml lukewarm milk
- 1 egg and 2 egg yolks
- 70 g melted butter
- 20 g fresh or 10 g dried yeast
- pinch of salt
FILLING
- 200 g ground poppy seeds
- 3 tablespoons chopped walnuts
- 150 ml milk
- 6 tablespoons cane sugar
- 2 tablespoons rum
- 2 egg whites
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 600 g plums
- 2 tablespoons plum jam
DOUGH INSTRUCTIONS
- 1If using fresh yeast, you must first prepare the starter. In 200 ml of lukewarm milk, dissolve one tablespoon of sugar and crumble the yeast into it, cover with a cloth and let it rise for 5 minutes.
- 2Meanwhile, put all other ingredients into a bowl, pour in the starter, and knead a soft and smooth dough by hand with a wooden spoon or in a stand mixer. The dough in this recipe is a bit thinner. Well-worked dough will peel away from the sides of the bowl. Cover the bowl with a cloth and place it in a warm, draft-free spot. Let it rise for two hours.
- 3Spread the risen dough onto a deep baking sheet 37 x 27 cm lined with baking paper. Cover with a cloth and let it rise again for 30 minutes.
FILLING INSTRUCTIONS
- 1Cook the ground poppy seeds with milk and sugar in a pot for about 5 minutes. Stir in the nuts, cinnamon, and rum. Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the cooled poppy seed mixture. If you like raisins, you can also add them to the filling.
- 2Wash the plums, pit them, and cut them in half.
- 3Spread the poppy seed filling over the dough, then arrange the plums cut-side up on top. Bake for 40 minutes in an oven preheated to 190°C. Towards the end of baking, heat up the plum jam. Immediately after removing the baked cake from the oven, brush the plums with the heated plum jam using a pastry brush.
