Nutmeg Free Dark Chocolate & Almond Baked Plums

Warm, jammy plums topped with a dark chocolate and almond crumble — this baked dessert hits every note you want from something that feels genuinely indulgent. The plums soften in the oven until their juices bubble up around the edges, while the topping turns golden and slightly crisp with chunks of 70% cacao chocolate and roughly chopped almonds holding it all together. Cinnamon and ginger do the heavy lifting in the spice department here, delivering that warm, aromatic depth without any of the sharp, sometimes overpowering bite that nutmeg can bring to baked fruit dishes. It's naturally sweetened with maple syrup and an optional honey drizzle, so nothing feels cloying or artificial. Coconut oil ties the crumble together and gives the whole dish a subtle richness that pairs beautifully with the tartness of the plums. Serve it straight from the baking dish while it's still warm — maybe alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of yogurt if you're feeling generous.
