the smell of the rosemary roasted plums made the house smell incredible, I decided to have them with some gluten free waffles. I used a recipe from our food stories I love their blog its packed with beautiful recipes.

I don’t often make big breakfasts so when I do its really special, plums are in season at the moment so they are perfect to use and they go really well with cardamom and rosemary and honey. even my dog archie wanted to have some he’s a cheeky monkey.

I decided to use honey as a sweetener for the roasted plums to make it a bit healthier.
