Pre-heat oven 340 F. Grease a baking tin with a small amount of oil. Mix all wet ingredients in a large bowl, not including plums. Sift dry ingredients into the bowl, not including almonds. Be careful not to overmix the batter if using wheat flour. Fold in almonds. Transfer batter into a lightly greased baking tin. It might be a good idea to place two long and wide strips of baking paper down first so that you can use them as handy tabs to remove the cake later. Decorate with plum halves. To prevent plums from sinking to the bottom, dip the side of the plum that will rest directly on the batter in a little bit of all purpose flour or starch before arranging on top of the cake. Bake for about 55 to 60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean and the top is nicely browned. Once cool, remove from the tin, sprinkle the top of the cake with a little powdered sugar, and perhaps a dust of ground cinnamon if desired.
