Roasted Plum Dessert - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use frozen plums instead of fresh ones for this recipe?

Yes, frozen plums can be used, but thaw and drain excess liquid before baking to prevent a soggy texture.

What can I substitute for amaretto if I don't have any?

You can use almond extract (a few drops) or omit it entirely. A splash of orange liqueur or brandy also works well.

How long can I store the roasted plums in the fridge?

Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving if desired.

Is there a vegan alternative for the ice cream topping?

Yes, use dairy-free vanilla ice cream or coconut yogurt for a vegan-friendly version.

Can I make this dessert ahead of time?

Roast the plums ahead and store them separately. Assemble with ice cream just before serving for the best texture.

How can I reduce the sugar in this recipe?

Use a sugar substitute like erythritol or reduce the sugar by half—the natural sweetness of plums may suffice.

Can I freeze the roasted plums for later use?

Yes, freeze them in an airtight container for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge before reheating or serving.

What other toppings work well besides almond petals?

Try crushed graham crackers, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey for added crunch or sweetness.

Can I use other stone fruits instead of plums?

Absolutely! Peaches, apricots, or nectarines work beautifully with the same method and flavors.
