Ingredients:

  • 1.5 lbs firm-ripe plums, halved and pitted
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp flaky sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the plum halves cut-side up on the sheet, leaving about an inch of space between each half for air circulation.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, thyme, and red pepper flakes until emulsified.
  4. Drizzle olive oil over the plums, then generously spoon the savory glaze over each half, ensuring the cut surface is well-coated.
  5. Roast in the center rack of the oven for 15–20 minutes until skins begin blistering and juices bubble into a thick syrup.
  6. Remove from the oven and let the plums rest for 5 minutes before serving.
