1
Wash and stone the plums. Stir starch and 4 tablespoons of water until smooth. Boil up plum juice or 1/4 l water, 3 tbsp sugar, lemon peel, lemon juice and plums. Stir in the starch and simmer for about 1 minute. Let it cool down. Stir in liqueur
2
Roast the almonds until golden brown. Take out immediately. Coarsely crumble the Amarettini. Distribute plums in 4 glass bowls. Put ice on top. Sprinkle with Amarettini and almonds

A few drops of bitter almond aroma also give the compote an almond note - completely without alcohol! The Amaretto plums can be combined just as well with almond, hazelnut or marzipan ice cream
