Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a bowl, combine the sliced cherry plums, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, cornstarch, and water. Mix well and pour into a baking dish.
In another bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, unsalted butter, salt, and baking powder until the mixture is crumbly. Add in the milk and egg and mix until a dough forms. Spread the dough over the cherry plum mixture and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
Let the crisp cool for a few minutes before serving. Top with whipped cream if desired.
Cherry Plum Jam
Place the sliced cherry plums in a large pot and add enough water to cover the fruit. Bring it to a boil and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes or until the fruit is soft.
Remove the pot from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes. Use a potato masher to mash the fruit until it is chunky. Add in the sugar and lemon juice and stir well.
