POACH the fresh plums in a pan with the orange juice, 25g light brown sugar and mixed spice over a gentle heat for 5 minutes. Cover and let the flavours develop while preparing the topping.

RUB together the flour, muesli and butter with finger tips until it resembles breadcrumbs, stir in the sugar.
