The plums actually came from my neighbours. He has a tree that is simply loaded with fruit every year. 

This year, I was too late getting to them but I did manage to pick about 200 plums from his tree - and that was just off a branch or two. 

200 plums made about 6 or 7 cups of plum powder. 

How to make plum sauce from scratch 

• Wash plums
• Cut in half to remove the pit
• Cut them into chunks (I used my KitchenAid DICER attachment)
