Hope you enjoy it. Glad you like the previously on GGGiraffe - I started it as a way to remind people of all the other posts on the blog.<br /><br />Thanks Katie - I did think of custard when cooking it and then forgot - thanks for the reminder<br /><br />Thanks Hannah - it was amazing - though 'gulp' I think I have only posted about plums last week - just one of those weeks of non-recipe posts due to lack of time to write up recipesJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-85123283512098835282011-06-05T18:41:06.293+10:002011-06-05T18:41:06.293+10:00This.

The idea of those flavours coming together is also very appealing (and not something I'd have thought up) so this recipe is definitely getting bookmarked on my laptop :)<br /><br />As a side note, I love the 'previously on GGG' section.

I often add ginger to the crumble bit of rhubarb crumble. But I bet it was really good with plums and what a lovely colour those plums are. Wouldn't have thought of using maple syrup, so must remember to give that a try. So hot here at the moment, I'm not quite in the mood for hot puddings, but it's meant to be going cooler and wetter next week, so who knows :)Choclettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00173996730095174268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-17180569232392258222011-06-05T05:18:32.417+10:002011-06-05T05:18:32.417+10:00Love the idea of a gingerbread sponge pudding on t...Love the idea of a gingerbread sponge pudding on top of the fruit - it sounds like a great combination!<br /><br />Love the picture of Sylvia's hand reaching out for one of those pieces of plum!
