Plum Bread image

I have a plum tree in my back yard, It produces a huge amount of small sweet purple plums every year. I try to find different recipes to use them in. This bread is sweet with the small bits of chopped plum giving it a subtle tartness, Really good along with a hot cup of coffee or tea
