Preparation Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch (23cm) round baking pan and set aside.

Dough In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt for the dough. Add the cold cubed butter and mix with your hands or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Dough In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until the dough comes together.

Dough Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead briefly until smooth. Roll out the dough to fit the prepared baking pan and transfer it to the pan. Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan.

Filling In a separate bowl, combine the sliced plums, sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon for the filling. Stir until the plums are coated with the mixture.

Filling Spread the plum filling evenly over the dough in the baking pan.

Topping In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and cinnamon for the topping. Add the cold cubed butter and mix until crumbly. Sprinkle the topping over the plum filling.

Baking Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Allow the plum cake to cool before serving.
