For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter. Almond extract also complements the plums beautifully. If Italian plums are not available, other varieties like black plums or even apricots can be substituted. To prevent the cake from sticking, line the bottom of the springform pan with parchment paper.
