Plum Cake Tatin Barefoot Contessa – Ina Garten, I watched Ina make this on t v today and it was beautiful The episode was called Photo Finish If you are having trouble pulling the pits out of the plums, try using a melon baller , Love it! my first Tatin and it came out perfect! Even though I forgot to pre heat the oven I stopped cooking the sugar at 310* poured it over the plums and it became rock hard I wasn’t sure if this would work Once the oven heated I poured on the cake batter and cooked it for 45 minutes Let it rest for 15 minutes inverted beautifully We will be making this again
