Ingredients

  • 4-5 ripe plums, (about 1 pound)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Slice plums in half and remove pits. Toss the plums with lemon juice in a large bowl; add sugar and toss once again. Arrange the plums cut-side up in a shallow baking dish. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, or until tender. If the juices in the pan begin to burn, add a little water and cover the pan loosely with aluminum foil. Let cool slightly before serving.
