Over 18 Fresh Plum Recipes (Seasonal Fruit)

Sharing is caring!

Plums are in season from mid-summer to the early Fall or Autumn months.  So, whether you have a plum tree or two or like to frequent the Farmer’s Market, you have an abundance of plums and need some great ways to preserve them and use them in some fresh plum recipes!

When shopping for plums or picking them from your plum tree, be sure to look for plums that are even in color and are plump.  They should move just a tad when gently squeezed.   Avoid any plums that are wrinkled or have any soft spots.  If the plums are too firm, you can place them in a closed paper bag at room temperature for a couple days.  With ripe plums, you can keep them in a plastic bag in your fridge for up to three days.  So, be careful when purchasing that you don’t over purchase more than you can eat, cook, or can in three days!
