Tassajara Peach Kuchen image

A spectacular dessert adapted from my old Tassajara Cookbook from the 1970s. If you bake in a pie plate, make sure to use a DEEP one. In the summer, I love to take this along when a pie is requested; the custardy top makes it look extra-special and it's delicious, too. Supposedly, you can substitute 2 packages frozen peaches for the fresh peaches, but I've never done this.

Time 1h10m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup butter
2 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup heavy cream or 1 cup sour cream
1 cup brown sugar
6 peaches, sliced
2 egg yolks, beaten
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Cut the butter into the dry ingredients (flour through salt) with a fork or pastry cutter until it looks like coarse meal.
  • Press firmly into a baking pan (I use a 10-inch deep-dish pie dish).
  • Arrange the peaches on the surface to cover.
  • Sprinkle the fruit with a mixture of the cinnamon and brown sugar.
  • Bake 15 minutes at 400°.
  • Pour the egg yolks beaten with the cream over the top.
  • Lower heat to 375° and bake 40 minutes longer.
