ut the backing pan in the oven and pre-heat it to 180 degree. Mix the two sorts of flour with the baking powder. Froth up the eggs with a pinch of sea salt. Whisk the milk, olive oil and honey. Mix the dry ingredients with the moist ones until you have a smooth batter, and incorporate the frothed up eggs. Get out the backing pan and dab it well with olive oil. Fill in the dough and bake for 25-30 minutes until the bread has a golden yellow colour.
Meanwhile, boil up the plum juice. Scratch out the vanilla bean and add the pulp with the bean, sugar, cinnamon and a pinch of sea salt to the juice and boil it down for 5-10 minutes.
Halve the plums, pit them and heat them shortly in the juice. Get the bread out of the oven and slice it into rectangles while still in the pan. Pour the juice over the slices, spread the plums and serve lukewarm.
