This time around I tried baking the plum cake using whole wheat (type 1050) what we get in Germany and it turned out to be a hit!Here goes the recipe! INGREDIENTS 2 cups whole wheat flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 5-6  plums 1 ripe banana Sugar 6 to 10 tsp 3/4 cup melted butter 1/4 cup milk Almonds - cut about 1/2 a cup HOW TO MAKE Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celcius. Grease and flour the baking pan. Sift together the flour, baking powder  into a large bowl.  Pour in the melted butter and mix well. Meanwhile,using a blender/mixer,blend the plums, banana and sugar with milk.  Make a well in the center and pour in the blended puree. Now add in the cut almonds.(optional) Mix well and pour onto the greased pan. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until a fork inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.  Allow it to cool and Enjoy!
