Baked plums with forest berries, whiskey, and oats are a true embodiment of French cuisine, where elegance, richness of flavors, and cozy simplicity combine. The origins of this dessert trace back to the tradition of baking fruits, revealing their sweetness and depth of aroma. Plums soaked in whiskey and caramelized with brown sugar gain softness and a slight spiciness, while blueberries and blackberries add fresh berry notes. Crispy oat flakes complete the textural composition, creating a subtle contrast between the delicate fruit filling and the crumbly golden top. This dessert is perfect for both warm family evenings and exquisite dinner parties where it can win the hearts of gourmets with its harmonious balance of flavors.
