This Peach Kuchen recipe is one of my favorite things that my German grandmother, my Oma makes. Sadly I don’t get to visit her so often now that I live far away, but she kindly sent a letter and included this recipe. I make this cake now whenever I miss home.
This cake is quite easy to make. Start by making a cake batter. To do this, cream margarine and sugar in a bowl and then add eggs and vanilla extract before mixing in flour, baking powder and salt. Spread the batter into your baking pan and top with peach slices and a sprinkling of cinnamon and sugar. Bake for 30 minutes, then enjoy!
To make Peach Kuchen, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 350 °F and lightly grease a 9 inch springform pan and dust with flour.
In a bowl, cream the margarine and sugar until you have a light and fluffy mixture.
Add the egg and mix well. Pour in the vanilla extract and stir.
Using a sieve, combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a large baking bowl.
Add the flour to the creamed mixture gradually and stir well to combine.
Transfer the batter to the pan. It should be spread across the bottom and 1 inch up each side of the springform pan.
Place the peach slices in a circular pattern over the dough. Sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over the peaches.
Bake the peach kuchen in the oven for 35-40 minutes until the sugar and cinnamon topping has started to crystallize.
Serve with some strong hot tea, just like my Oma used to.
This Peach Kuchen is like a little slice of home! I love it and I’m sure you will too. If you make it, come back and leave a review telling me what you think!
Delicious! Thanks for sharing recipe!
