  2. Add flour and salt and knead to a smooth dough
  3. Cover it up and let the dough rise at a warm spot for approx. 2-3 hours (the less yeast, the longer the rising time)

  2. Add cinnamon and coconut oil

<strong>Topping:</strong>

  1. Knead the yeast dough once more and then place it into a round baking pan (approx. 30 cm / 12“ ø) – if you want to bake a whole baking pan, then double the ingredients
  2. Sprinkle 2 Tbsp hazelnuts on top of the dough
  3. Wash and pit the plums and place them on top of the dough
  4. Sprinkle the crumbles on top of the plums
  5. Bake the cake at 180°C (356°F) for about 25-30 minutes
