Plum and Polenta CakeFrancesco Tonelli
This is a family favorite, created by Gianni's aunt Angela. It's a great cake to make when summer fruit is abundant. It is delicious when made with the plums called for in this recipe, but you may also want to consider using figsone of my favorite fruitsor pitted sweet cherries. You can substitute about 6 quartered figs or 1/2 cup of cherries in place of the plums.
