Plumcake yogurt and fruit tatin

The recipe for this plumcake yogurt and fruit tatin I am going to give you is my workhorse of summer and probably using a different seasonal fruit, will also become that of autumn and winter!

With this light batter, because made with yogurt instead of butter, you can also make delicious muffins. In this case you can put fruit inside the Muffins (adding a little fresh fruit Compote between a spoonful of dough and the other in cups), or if you don’t have fresh fruit, you can also use fruit yogurt and season so! … be creative and create a thousand different versions but always delicious!
