Juicy plums roasted until their edges caramelize and their juices bubble up around a golden, spiced nut crust ā this dessert is the kind of thing that looks far more impressive than the effort it actually takes. The combination of walnuts, almonds, cinnamon, and ginger creates a topping that crunches and crumbles in all the right ways against the soft, jammy fruit underneath. Everything here is built from whole, plant-forward ingredients, so there's no need to second-guess a single component if you're navigating a red meat allergy ā no hidden animal proteins, no ambiguous additives, just clean and naturally sweet flavors. Coconut oil and maple syrup do the heavy lifting in both the glaze and the nut mixture, binding everything together while adding a subtle richness that feels genuinely indulgent. A final drizzle of honey (totally optional) pushes it right over the edge into something you'd happily serve to guests. Warm from the oven with the spices still fragrant in the air, this is the kind of simple baked fruit dish that earns a permanent spot in your rotation.

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.
