Roasted Brown Sugar Plums with Amaretto Whipped Cream
"Often you feel like a pudding or something sweet to finish off a meal, but it can be too easy to reach for a shop made version. This is a weekday pudding that can be put to together quickly and has the added benefit from the vitamin rich plums.
"The Amaretto cream is an optional luxurious extra, but it can be served with Greek yoghurt or crème fraiche instead." Sophie Michell
