Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1/2 cup White Sugar
- 1/4 cup Packed Brown Sugar
- 1/2 tsp Almond Extract
- 2 Large Eggs
- 2 cups All Purpose Flour
- 2 tsp Baking Powder

- 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 F. Fill a muffin tin with liners or grease with nonstick cooking spray.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix the butter, white sugar, brown sugar and almond extract on medium high for 2-3 minutes, or until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on medium until combined.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground cardamom and salt. In a liquid measuring cup, stir together the milk and yogurt. Add half the dry ingredients to the mixer, mixing on low. Follow with half the milk mixture. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl, and then repeat with the remaining ingredients. Stop mixing before the batter is completely smooth. Use a spatula to fold in the plum chunks. Divide the batter into the prepared muffin tin.
- Top with a thin slice of plum then bake for 20-25 minutes, or until inserted with a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let rest on cooling racks for 5 minutes before serving.
