Stewed plums are a simple and delightful dessert that can be enjoyed year-round. The gentle cooking process brings out the natural sweetness of the plums while creating a luscious syrup. If you’re wondering how to make this delectable treat, follow our step-by-step guide below.

What You’ll Need

  • 1 kg of fresh plums
  • 1 cup of water
  • ½ cup of granulated sugar
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Step 1: Prepare the Plums

Wash the plums thoroughly under running water. Remove the stems and pits, and cut them into halves or quarters, depending on their size. Set aside.

Step 2: Create the Syrup

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the water, sugar, cinnamon stick, and vanilla extract. Place the pan over medium heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved completely.

Step 3: Add the Plums

Gently add the prepared plums into the saucepan with the syrup. Stir well to ensure all the plums are coated in the syrup.

Step 4: Simmer to Perfection

Reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan. Allow the plums to simmer for approximately 20-30 minutes, or until they are tender and the syrup has thickened slightly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, but be gentle to avoid breaking the plums.

Step 5: Cool and Serve

Once the plums are done, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes. You can serve the stewed plums warm or allow them to cool completely before refrigerating. They taste delicious on their own, but you can also serve them with yogurt, ice cream, or even alongside a slice of cake.

Enjoy this delightful dessert and experiment with different spices or flavorings to suit your taste. Stewed plums can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week, so you can savor this treat for several days.
