One Bowl Apple Plum Cake

 

 

 

Here in Michigan, we are having the most beautiful September ever. Cool crisp mornings, lovely mild, sunny days and nights perfect for a bonfire. The mornings especially are my very favorite; meant to be enjoyed slowly with a cup of coffee. And, a crispness in the air always puts me in the mood to bake that special something to go along with my coffee.

I was up a little later this morning, so wanted to make something quick and easy. Fall flavors sounded so good, so I knew it had to be something with apples and cinnamon. For this recipe, everything really does get mixed in one bowl and the hardest part is peeling the apple. At the last minute, I decided to add a plum for extra flavor and it turned this cake into something special. I had a piece for breakfast, but this would also be delicious warm and with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Fall on a plate :-)
