Ingredients

2 large eggs room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 plums sliced

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F and spray an 8" x 8" pan with cooking spray. Line with parchment.
Whisk flour and baking powder in a small bowl, set aside.
In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat eggs and sugar on high until pale and fluffy (approx. 5mins).
Reduce speed to medium and slowly stream in oil and vanilla. Beat on high until well combined (2-3mins).
Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture. Mix just until combined.
Fold in sliced plums and spread in prepared pan.
Bake for 30-35mins until golden and a cake tester comes out almost clean.
Cool completely in pan. Dust with powdered sugar.

Notes

Recipe can be doubled to fit a 9" x 13" pan and baking time will need to increase to 45mins or so.
