I made a very simple dessert: Plum Crumble
Slice and pit about 8 plums. Put them in a bowl and toss with a spoonful of cornstarch and a spoonful of brown sugar. Set aside.
Make the crumble in another bowl. One cup of brown sugar. One cup of oatmeal. A pinch of salt. Combine. Cube a stick of chilled butter and work it into the crumble. Don't worry if you don't work it all in.
I put my fruit into individual ramekins but you can just put it into a baking dish (in fact, save dishes and mix the fruit, sugar and corn starch in the baking dish). Distribute the fruit evenly. Layer the crumble on top so that it covers the fruit. I like the crumble thick so I sometimes add a bit more sugar and oats to my mix. Do what you like, it's a very forgiving recipe.
Bake at 350f for around 35 to 45 minutes.
Take it out and let it cool for 15 to 30 mins.
Eat! It goes well with ice cream or a spoon of marscapone cheese.
EDIT: you can do this with just about any stone fruits, berries, apples, pears, etc. You can also combine them.
