Prune Purée
In food processor, process prunes and water until puréed.
Cake
In a bowl, whisk together the prune purée, eggs, buttermilk and vanilla until nearly smooth (bits of prune purée will remain visible). In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and lemon zest for 30 seconds. Add the butter and 1/2 cup (135 grams) of the prune purée mixture and mix on low speed until the ingredients are moistened. Increase the speed to medium and beat for 1 1/2 minutes or until the batter is light and fluffy. Stir in the remaining prune purée mixture on low speed until incorporated. Fold in the Amaz!ns™. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the streusel on top of the batter, patting it lightly so it adheres to the surface. Bake for 60 to 70 minutes or until the center is set. Cool completely before unmolding.
