Baked stone fruit is one of those desserts that feels far more impressive than the effort it actually takes, and this version delivers serious warmth and texture in every bite. Ripe plums turn jammy and tender in the oven, their natural tartness balancing beautifully against a spiced walnut-and-almond topping that goes golden and fragrant as it bakes. Coconut oil and maple syrup do the heavy lifting here, keeping everything naturally sweetened and free from synthetic preservatives or the kinds of additives that sneak into conventional baked goods and packaged desserts. A pinch of sea salt and a hit of ground ginger in the nut mixture add just enough complexity to make this feel genuinely special rather than simply wholesome. Every ingredient is straightforward and easy to source, which means you stay in full control of what goes into the dish — no label-reading anxiety required. Finish with an optional drizzle of honey and serve it warm straight from the baking dish for a dessert that looks like it came from a restaurant kitchen.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the plum halves cut-side up in a 9x13-inch baking dish, fitting them snugly so they hold their shape.
Stir together the 1 tbsp melted coconut oil, 1 tbsp maple syrup, and 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon in a small bowl, then brush or spoon the mixture evenly over the cut faces of the plums.
