Plumcot, Goat Cheese, Zucchini, Rosemary Flammkuchen

The love child of a plum and an apricot, plumcots posses a unique sweet-sour flavor and are oh so pretty on top of this flammkuchen or anywhere really. In this Plumcot, Goat Cheese, Zucchini, Rosemary Flammkuchen recipe, plumcot, and zucchini slices recline on a soft bed of sour cream and goat cheese.

Fragrant rosemary is scattered over the top for a pop of flavor. You can imagine how this German pizza is definitely bringing the flavor.

Look at these gorgeous plumcots.

Seriously. I could gaze at them all day. The jeweled colors and beautiful textures.

They look even more beautiful sliced. Of course, you can substitute regular purple plums for this recipe. However, even though the taste may be great, the flammkuchen will not look as pretty. on your table.

Like my easy apple raspberry cake, this Plumcot, Goat Cheese, Zucchini, Rosemary Flammkuchen recipe contains two seasonal flavors, a zucchini goodbye to summer and hello fall plum.

This flammkuchen is perfect for brunch or lunch. However, after tasting it’s fruity, creamy flavor, I ate one for breakfast. It was perfect and has my vote for the first meal of the day.
