Heavenly Poppy Seed Cake with Plums
· 8 servings
Poppy seed filling
In a saucepan, bring the milk to a boil, then stir in the ground poppy seeds mixed with sugar, the Don Papa rum and the jam. Simmer everything together briefly, stirring so it doesn't catch on the bottom. Let it cool.
Dough
Mix all the dough ingredients together until you get a crumbly consistency. Press two-thirds of it into a round baking tin, covering the base and sides.
Add the poppy seed filling
Spread the poppy seed filling over the dough and arrange the pitted, halved plums on top. Sprinkle with the remaining dough.
Bake
Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C.
Meringue and almonds
After 20 minutes of baking, top the cake with a meringue made from whisked egg whites and sugar, then sprinkle with almond flakes. Bake for a further 25 minutes.
