Stewed Plums
Stewed Plums with cinnamon and brown sugar only take 10 minutes to make with 4 simple ingredients! The plums get nicely poached and syrupy.
Ingredients
- 6 plums
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar (or white)
- 3 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 1 cinnamon stick (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Wash, de-stone and halve the plums (leave the skin on).
- 2
Place the sugar, water, orange juice and cinnamon stick into a medium-sized pot over a medium heat and simmer, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves.
- 3
Add the plums and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the fruit is soft and begins to break down. Keep an eye on it as very ripe plums will cook faster and will get mushier. You want the plums to still be intact, but be soft and cooked through.

Remove and discard the cinnamon stick.
