From Cooking Light's 1994 Annual Cookbook. This sounds so different that I had to post it. I love walnuts and I love plums and this recipe actually looks pretty easy. Give it a shot! You have to let part of the mixture sit for 30 minutes, but I am not adding that into the prep or cook time. Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon rind |
4 lbs purple plums, pitted and quartered |
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
3/4 cup oats, uncooked |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar |
1/4 cup reduced-calorie margarine |
1/4 cup chopped walnuts |
vegetable oil cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Combine first 3 ingredients in a large bowl; stir well. Add plums and gently toss to coat. Add lemon juice and toss gently. Let stand 30 minutes.
2. Combine oats, flour and brown sugar in a small bowl. Cut in margarine with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in walnuts.
3. Spoon plum mixture into a 2 1/2-quart casserole coated with cooking spray. Cover; bake 400 degrees for 40 minutes. Sprinkle oat mixture over plums. Bake, uncovered, 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve warm.
