Hi, I am a German Chef and Food Photographer. The imparting of cooking knowledge is my great passion. Everyone can cook for himself and with this website I would like to contribute to its success. Cooking questions I answer you gladly at the end of the articles. Have fun and good luck!
For today I have prepared my recipe Plum Crumble for dessert. Summer is blue, so they say, because the wonderful fruits are available on the market in July, August and September, later varieties also until October.
The preparation time for this simple dessert is less than 30 minutes. You can prepare this dessert well when guests arrive.
Now let yourself be tempted to bake and enjoy the pictures and tips before you go into the kitchen. I wish you success, send me a message, I am looking forward to it!

1. Preparing crumbles
For this simple “cake” you only need the fruit and freshly prepared crumbles. The crumbles are made with butter, flour, sugar and vanilla sugar.
For the flour you can try either wheat flour or gluten-free varieties such as mixed flour or buckwheat flour. I would particularly recommend the latter! Buckwheat flour tastes incredibly delicious and goes well with the taste of plums.
Sieve the flour before preparation, this makes the crumbles better!
Baking tip from chef Thomas Sixt
As far as sugar is concerned, only whole cane sugar comes into question for me. I like the taste and use it where I can instead of white industrial sugar.
Besides primal salt or Himalayan salt, brown whole cane sugar is one of the basic ingredients in my kitchen!
Ingredients tip for your kitchen from chef Thomas Sixt
You can prepare your crumbles with cold or warm butter, the consistency changes accordingly.
Soft butter makes fine, hard butter makes coarse crumbles

2. Preparing fruit
Pay attention to quality when shopping! Ripe plums rot relatively quickly and it is worth taking a close look in the shop.
Wash the plums and then rub dry, then cut into slices. The pictures give you an impression.
3. Baking tray or tins
This dessert is really ingenious! You can put crumbles and fruit in small, buttered moulds or prepare a whole baking tray.
I am more the mould type and like to bring the dessert directly to the table in portions.
The advantage of moulds: from the oven, it goes straight to the table. This is very practical when visitors come!
