Roasted plum jam

This is a recipe, which I received last year from my dentist Miss Davorka and which I only tried for the first time these days, thanks to this year's abundant harvest of plums. The recipe basically reminded me of plum jam prepared by my mom Katica and grandma Agneza. But then the plums were cooked for a very long time and according to this recipe they are baked. If you like plums in a slightly old-fashioned way, here is that simple recipe that delighted me… ..

Preparation steps

Wash the plums well, remove the stones and cut them in half and place them on a deeper baking sheet.
Sprinkle with sugar, stir gently, and place in an oven preheated to 200-220 ° C and bake for 2 to 2, 2 hours. Stir occasionally.
When the desired density is reached, stir in the rum and fill into hot jars. Close the jars immediately and put them in a warm oven to cool until the next day.
Note: If you want a less sweet jam, reduce the amount of sugar, and if you want your jam to be thinner, shorten the baking time. The application of this extraordinary jam, whose peculiarity is also plum skins, is really diverse.
