Polish Applesauce Cake image

5 stars! This is the best cake I've ever made and I'm not the greatest baker, but this is fool proof. It is so moist and flavorful with perfect texture. Great anytime of year and is quick and easy for entertaining. You'll get a lot get compliments with this one. This gets even better over time and will last awhile. I keep it on the counter covered with foil. Great for breakfast!

POLISH FRESH PLUM CAKE--PLACEK Z SLIWKAMI



Polish Fresh Plum Cake--Placek Z Sliwkami image

There's a thimble-sized Farmer's Market in our neighborhood and one August visit, I bought a fresh plum cake. I thought nothing of it except "Well, now I have dessert for tonight." Little did I know what an adventure it would turn into! The wrapping from the bakery was tossed and unobtainable after my family went insane for this cake! Beyond moist, a perfect blend of tart and sweet, I spent days trying to locate a similar recipe with no luck; every "plum cake" that I found had either plum baby food or some crumb or streusal topping. I finally located the bakery through the Farmer's Market and found out the name of the cake. It's a Polish delicacy and MUST be made with fresh plums, in season fruit.

Time 1h

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup sugar (plus)
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, very soft (plus)
3 tablespoons butter (COLD, cut into pieces)
3/4 cup milk, room temperature
2 large eggs
40 fresh plums (any variety, pitted and halved)
1/4 teaspoon clove

Steps:

  • Lightly coat a 13"x9" pan with cooking spray. Heat oven to 350 degrees. In large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and 3/4 cup sugar. Add 1/2 cup softened butter, milk and eggs. Beat at medium speed 4 minutes.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan. Place plums on top, cut side up, pushing down slightly into batter.
  • Cut remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cloves into 3 tablespoons cold butter and sprinkle over plums. Bake about 40 minutes or until a toothpick tests clean.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan so the plum juices will be reabsorbed to create a moist cake. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, if desired, and cut into 12 squares.

Cherry Kuchen (Pronounced Ku-Kah by My Family) image

Old family recipe for a coffee cake with fruit topping from a region in Russia where a community of Germans lived. This is my father's version of the recipe which is almost sugar-free. Very good served warm with vanilla bean frozen yogurt or ice cream.

2 beaten eggs
3/4 cup water (105-115 degrees)
1 (1/4 ounce) package dry yeast
4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 teaspoons cardamom powder

Steps:

  • Add water to beaten eggs and dissolve dry yeast in this mixture. Let all these ingredients rest refrigerated for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, blend with a pastry blender or by hand flour, salt, sugar, butter and cardamom.

  • Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes until topping begins to golden.
