Filling
  • 2 lbs fresh plums I used a mixture of black and red
  • 4 tablespoon light brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoon arrowroot starch or cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
Oat crumble:
  • 1 c all-purpose flour

  2. Toss the plum slices in a large bowl with the brown sugar, arrowroot starch and cinnamon.
  3. Set the bowl aside. In a medium bowl, combine the topping ingredients and use your fingers to form crumbs.

  5. Bake for 35-45 minutes, until the crumb is browned and the juices are bubbling.
