Plum Delicious Upside-Down Cake image

Wow! I combined the best of two recipes I found here at Recipezaar and this came out! It's beautiful, easy, and serves more than the two recipes I combined. (Thanks to AmbyDawn and Tamibic2 for the ideas.)

Time 42m

Yield 12-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
6 plums, sliced (and peeled if the skins are getting old and wrinkly)
2/3 cup blueberries (I use thawed frozen ones that I picked in the summer.)
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/3 cups Splenda sugar substitute (or sugar if you're not dieting)
2 tablespoons lemon zest
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/3 cups low-fat buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Put the butter in a 13x9 baking dish (I use a glass casserole dish) and let the butter melt in the oven while it's preheating.
  • Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the melted butter.
  • Arrange plum slices over brown sugar.
  • Sprinkle with blueberries.
  • Sift together the dry ingredients. Add lemon zest.
  • Beat together wet ingredients; eggs, vanilla, buttermilk.
  • Make a well in the dry ingredients.
  • Dump in the wet mixture.
  • Mix just until moistened.
  • Pour batter over the plums and blueberries.
  • Bake for 30 minutes; test with a toothpick.
  • When done, cool for about 8 minutes.
  • Now, carefully, invert onto a 13x9 serving plate if you have one or into another 13x9 casserole dish (which is what I do) so that the bottom is now on top.
  • See how pretty this is?
