For some reason I’d never tried a plum until this weekend. Weird, I know, but I had some preconception that I just wouldn’t like them. Then I spotted these lovely yellow and red ones and the Union Square Greenmarket and couldn’t resist. Good move.

I tried one when I got home and it was pretty good. But then I asked a friend what I should do with the rest of them and she suggested I make a cobbler. So off I went to make my first plum cobbler, and let me tell you this was a great way to start. I found this recipe for Plum Cobbler with Cinnamon Biscuits and it kind of rocked my world. The plums were a little tart, so the soft, cinnamon biscuits provided a great contrast to the juicy plums.

Whether you’ve tried plums or not, now’s the time to use them up with this gem of a recipe.
