Ingredients:
1/2 c. butter, softened
1 c. sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. almond extract
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 c. all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 c. chopped fresh plums
TOPPING:
3 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 Tbsp. cold butter
1/3 c. chopped walnuts
1 Tbsp. coarse sugar

Directions:
In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.  Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.  Beat in extracts.  Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with cream.  Fold in plums.  Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full.

For topping, in a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour and cinnamon; cut in butter until crumbly.  Stir in walnuts.  Sprinkle over batter; sprinkle with coarse sugar.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.  Serve warm.
