Rice Free Dark Chocolate & Almond Baked Plums

Warm, jammy plums straight from the oven with a crackly dark chocolate and almond topping — this dessert feels genuinely indulgent while being built entirely from wholesome, grain-free ingredients. The natural sugars in the fruit caramelize as they bake, creating bubbling, ruby-red juices that pool around each plum half and make the whole kitchen smell incredible. The crumble topping comes together in one bowl: chopped almonds, almond flour, coconut oil, maple syrup, and chunks of rich 70% dark chocolate that melt just enough to bind everything into a satisfying, crunchy-edged crust. A pinch of sea salt and a whisper of ground ginger in that topping push the flavor somewhere between rustic and sophisticated. For anyone navigating a rice-free lifestyle, desserts can sometimes feel like an afterthought — but this one is a genuine showstopper that doesn't require any substitutions or workarounds. Finish it with a drizzle of honey if you want a little extra sweetness, then serve it warm straight from the baking dish while the chocolate is still glossy and the plums are perfectly tender.
