Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 13×9-inch sheet pan with parchment or grease lightly.
Step 2
Cream butter and sugar in a bowl until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes with a spoon.
Step 3
Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until just combined.
Step 4
Spread batter evenly across the pan. Halve the plums, remove pits, and press them cut-side down into the batter in rows.
Step 5
Bake until the cake is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 12–14 minutes.
Step 6
Cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
