This was dry and dense and by the time the interior was cooked, the outside was burnt.

Great use of abundant plums! The dough was pretty dry, but the plums were overripe, so after adding them to the dough it was perfect consistency - no need to add more liquid as others have done.

My Dad LOVED this. Plums were over ripe so I added a little extra flour and no nuts. Very Good.

14-year-old daughter loved this bread, even though none of the kids ate the canned plums for lunch. (This is why I tried to find the recipe in the first place.) Didn't put in nuts, but otherwise followed the recipe. Definitely will use this over and over again.

This makes a really great bread. But why are we peeling the plums? I pitted them, cut them in quarters and pulsed them in my processor 'til they were chopped. They worked fine, and we still had the extra nutrition in the skins. I did add 1/4 cup applesauce as suggested by previous cooks, since the batter did seem a bit dry. Loved the extra clove flavor.

I just made this bread today, using pitted prunes - it came out perfect, with a few changes, I reversed the amount of spices, less cloves and more cinnamon, and reduced the amount of sugar; also added a good 1/3 cup of milk and replaced the walnuts with pecans (the reason being that I have ruined too many recipes using walnuts since they almost always taste stale. The bread was chewy and more than sweet enough.

My family loved this bread. The batter was a bit dry so I added 1/4 cup of milk and it turned out great. I made it 2 nights in a row with plums off our plum tree. It was wonderful.

I am not a dessert person, but I love to bake. I made this twice, once at work and once for my boyfriends family. Everyone loved it!! The second time, my boyfriend wanted pecans instead of the walnuts and 1 cup of sugar instead of 3/4 cup. Needless to say, this is a great little bread!! Easy to make too!!

SO delicious. I agree with the other reviwers that the batter was too dry. I added about 1/2 cup of milk and 1/2 cup of applesauce. Wonderful! Thank you!

My co-worker brought in a huge box of plums from his tree and I decided to make some bread. Overall this is wonderful recipe and I think works best with plums that are not completely soft. I used a potatoe peeler to peel these them and it helped alot. Okay my experience with this is you can't get it wrong. On a whim I decided to make this, I didn't have enought honey so I added a some sugar. Didn't have enought sugar so I used splenda for baking for part of it and didn't have walnuts so I used pecans and the batter was dry so I added another egg and a little bit of milk to make the right consistency for bread(yes it was a cook on the whim because i wanted to but didn't want to go to the store). This bread came out wonderful, moist in the middle and the sweetness &tartness of the plums was a nice touch. Very good and as you can see hard to mess up LOL

Not a bad bread but I think the cooking time is too long. I used a glass loaf pan and the outside browned way too much. Will def try again and will cover the top to keep from browning so much and reduce the time.

Very good. I agree, a great breakfast bread. A great way to use up over ripe plums. I made some substitutions, I didn't have 1/2 cup of honey so used 1/4 cup, I substituted nutmeg for cloves and used 2 eggs and 1/4 cup of milk like other reviewers. A very good bread, the plums add a great texture to the bread.

Very yummy bread!...I rated it 4 stars only because I ended up adding about 1/3 cup of yogurt to the batter because it was so thick it almost needed kneading! It was a great way to use up those leftover plums that had been lurking at the back of my counter.

This was a good recipe for extra plums. It was a bit too spicy for my family so I only used 1/2 of the spices. It came out perfect. Thanks for this one.

I was disappointed in this bread. It just tastes kind of flat and isn't nearly good enough to justify how long it took to peel and chop the fruit! I think the lack of fat and salt in the recipe explains the flatness of the flavor.

This is a great recipe! It appears to be a thick dough, but bakes up great with a slightly crunchy top. The only bad part was how long it took me to peel the plums (which came from the back yard). It was so tasty that I made another loaf for the neighbors.
