These seasonal mini plums are a sweet revelation in an easy baked custard pie
I realised recently that a lot of my mates don’t know what damsons are. When I launched my online cookery school, Damson Jelly, a lot of people were like: what’s a damson? I love these little plums so much and adore them for their short season, rarity and versatility. They are so representative of seasonality here in the UK, and are to be cherished. I make damson cheese, jelly, jams, and eat them as they are, while here is a baked custard pie/brioche base hybrid that is a really fun thing for a dinner party. It’s low effort and maximum flavour.
