Put 400 g flour, 60 g sugar, 1 packet vanilla sugar, salt and 1 egg in a bowl. Mix yeast and 1 tablespoon of sugar in a cup until the yeast is liquid. Pour the yeast into the flour.

Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes.

In the meantime, wash the plums and drain well. Cut the plums in half, remove the stone and cut the halves in half. Lightly knead the yeast dough on a floured work surface. (soft yeast dough!) Put it on a greased, floured fat pan (approx. 32 x 39 cm), dust lightly with flour and roll out. Cover the dough and let it rise again for about 10 minutes. Place the plums in rows on the dough in flakes. Bake in the pre-heated oven, mid-height (electric oven: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for approx. 35 minutes. Separate 4 eggs for the sponge cake topping. Beat the egg whites until stiff, add 75 g sugar and 1 packet of vanilla sugar and fold in at the end. Add egg yolks one after the other and also fold in. Mix 100 g flour and baking powder, sieve onto the egg foam mixture and carefully stir in. After approx. 25 minutes, remove the cake from the oven, spread the sponge cake mixture on the plums with a large spoon and immediately put it back into the oven. Bake in about 10 minutes.
