Plum cake
I prefer the smaller version of my plum cake as here in the picture, because you can freeze the cake better. The small plum cake you can quickly take out of the freezer if necessary and bake up briefly.

In a bowl, mix the whole spelt flour with the baking powder.

Chill the dough covered for 1 hour. Either in the refrigerator or in the cellar.
Covering
In the meantime, prepare the plums. To do this, wash the plums, pit them and cut them into small oblong pieces. You will need about 600 g of plums for the topping. Depending on how thick you want to cover the plum cake.
For the cake
Remove small portions of the dough with well-floured hands.
Flatten slightly and place on a baking sheet with baking paper.
Spread the finely chopped plums on the dough.
Bake in preheated oven at 180 degrees celsius top/bottom heat for 30 minutes.
If you want to bake a whole plum cake, take a round baking pan and line it with baking paper. Then spread the dough on it with floured hands. Cover with the plums.
Glaze
For the glaze, wash, stone and chop 250 g of plums.
Place in a pot with 500 ml of water.
Add 1 tablespoon of date flour and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon.
Simmer everything together for about 10 to 15 minutes, until the plums are soft.
Then strain the plums.
Whisk the broth with 2 sachets of agar agar and simmer in the pot for 2 - 5 minutes.
Cool slightly until a light jelly-like substance is formed.
Spoon the plum jelly over the finished and cooled plum cake or plum gingerbread and spread.
Then allow to cool.
