Plums in Marsala

Directions

1. 1
   Stir the sugar into the marsala.
2. 2
   Place the whole plums in an ungreased baking dish, lay in the cinnamon sticks and the vanilla pod and then pour over the marsala mixture.
3. 3
   Bake at 180C for about 40 minutes.
4. 4
   If you like a thicker sauce you could also mix a bit of cornstarch into the sauce before baking, but I like it runny.
5. 5
   Serve with a dollop of greek yoghurt or ice cream on top.
6. 6
   It's also good mixed into rice pudding.
