    Gluten-Free Chocolate Plum Cake that’s also Free From Dairy, Nuts, and Soy

    This recipe for gluten-free chocolate plum cake was shared with us many years ago by Foods Matter, a leading UK resource for celiac disease and food allergies. They puree fresh plums for the batter, and spike the cake with even more plums, for a delicious fruity infusion. It’s also rich with a double dose of chocolate. And I know many of you will like that this cake is free of gums and starches. It uses eggs, extra cocoa, and sticky buckwheat flour for binding.

    This is a very dark and nutty cake, with unexpected little nuggets of fresh plum. It's quite a flavorful tea cake, and doesn't need frosting. But you can dust it with powdered sugar or glaze with plum jam for pretty presentation. Please note that the cup measurements on this recipe are approximate.
    Author: Foods Matter
    Recipe type: Dessert
    Cuisine: British
    Serves: 1 cake
    Ingredients
    • 2 ounces (1/2 cup) buckwheat flour
    • 2 ounces (1/2 cup) oat flour
    • 2 ounces (1/3 cup) rice flour
    • 2 teaspoons gluten-free baking powder
    • Pinch salt
    • 6 ounces (3/4 cup) dairy-free buttery sticks
    • 6 ounces (3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons) dark muscovado sugar (can sub sucanat or dark brown sugar)
    • 2 ounces (2/3 cup) cocoa powder
    • 6 ripe fresh plums, pitted
    • 3 eggs
    • 2 ounces dairy-free chocolate, finely chopped
    • Good quality plum jam (optional)
    Instructions
    1. Preheat your oven to 180C / 350°F / Gas Mark 4, and grease the bottom of a 15cm (6-inch) springform pan. Line the bottom of your cake pan with a round cut sheet of parchment if you don't have a removable bottom pan. You can use an 8-inch pan for a shorter cake.
    2. In a small bowl, whisk together the buckwheat flour, oat flour, rice flour, baking powder, and salt.
    3. In a mixing bowl, cream the buttery sticks and sugar. Add the cocoa powder and mix to combine. Put 3 of the plums in your blender or food processor and puree. Scrape the plums into your cocoa batter and mix. Add the eggs, one at a time, alternating with the flour blend.
    4. Chop the three remaining plums into fairly small pieces.
    5. Fold the plum and chocolate pieces into the batter.
    6. Scrape the batter into your prepared cake pan.
    7. Bake the cake for 50 minutes, or until a skewer or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
    8. Let the cake cool for a few minutes in the pan, then remove it to a wire rack to cool completely.
    9. When cool, you can top with plum jam or split the cake horizontally and fill it with a layer of plum jam, if desired.
