Baked plums are one of those desserts that feel far more impressive than the effort involved, and this version with a spiced walnut-almond topping is genuinely stunning. The plums turn jammy and syrupy in the oven, their natural tartness mellowing into something rich and almost caramel-like as the juices bubble up around the edges. A coating of maple syrup, coconut oil, and cinnamon goes on before baking, and the nut topping ā walnuts and almonds tossed with ginger, more cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt ā turns golden and crunchy on top while the fruit softens underneath. Every single ingredient here is naturally free from ocean-sourced proteins, so there's no label-checking or substitution gymnastics required. A finishing drizzle of honey pulls the whole thing together and makes it look like something you'd order at a nice restaurant. Serve it warm straight from the baking dish and watch it disappear fast.

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.
