PLUM STREUSEL KUCHEN



Plum Streusel Kuchen image

This recipe is actually called "platz" in German (meaning "flat") and has been in my family since before I was born. The fresh fruits of summer make it a favorite, and it's simply wonderful warm out of the oven. We enjoy this German plum cake with ice cream or whipped cream, too. -Lisa Warkentin, Winnipeg, Manitoba

PEACH STREUSEL KUCHEN



Peach Streusel Kuchen image

This great recipe comes to us from Roti n Rice - with one twist; I used regular all purpose flour instead of bread flour as her recipe calls for. This results in a more cakey and less breadlike kuchen. This base recipe is also great with blueberries (1 pt) or apple (3 medium) or u could be adventurous and try pineapple :) ...

STREUSEL KUCHEN (CRUMB CAKE)



Streusel Kuchen (Crumb Cake) image

This is an old family recipe. My mother made it during the holidays. Now that she has passed away, I carry on the tradition. [Great with ice cold milk or a good cup of coffee! :) YUMMY!!!!]

Provided by Sidewinder314

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 30 pieces, 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups flour
4 egg yolks
1 lb butter (4 sticks)
1/2 cup sugar
1.5 (18 ounce) jars apricot-pineapple jam
butter-flavored cooking spray (or additional butter to coat the pan)

Steps:

  • In a food processor, add 2 cups flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 egg yolks, and 1/2 lb. butter (2 sticks, cut up into pieces).
  • Pulse until mixture is crumbly and butter is incorporated into the flour (be careful not to overdo it).
  • Put mixture in a 13x9 pan which has been sprayed with butter-flavored cooking spray (or, use additional butter).
  • Spread mixture and pat down.
  • Heat open jars of jam in the microwave for a minute or two so that jam will spread easily over the crumb mixture.
  • Spread the 1.5 jars of jam over the mixture in the pan. (Pro Tip: buy three jars so you have enough jam for two batches!).
  • Repeat steps 1 through 4 above, but this time pulse a little longer so that the crumb mixture is a little chunkier (not much though!) and sprinkle over layer of jam.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for about 1 hour or until golden brown.

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes

Time 1h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup low-fat milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons butter
3 ¼ cups bread flour
¼ cup white sugar
¾ teaspoon sea salt
1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast or bread machine yeast
1 (24 ounce) carton ricotta cheese
¾ cup white sugar
3 eggs
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup light brown sugar, packed
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons non dairy amaretto flavored creamer

Steps:

  • Place the milk, 1 egg, 2 tablespoons of butter, flour, 1/4 cup white sugar, salt and yeast into the pan of your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select the Dough cycle and press Start. Let the dough rise 25 minutes.
  • While the dough is preparing, in a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 3/4 cup of white sugar, 3 eggs, and vanilla extract. Beat on high speed 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Grease a 15x10 inch baking sheet and set aside. Remove dough from bread machine and place on lightly floured surface. Roll out dough into rectangular shape to fit baking sheet. Carefully slide dough onto baking sheet. Using a knife or scissors, start on the long sides and cut 1 inch wide strips in towards the center to make approximately 14 strips on each side. Cut in only far enough to leave a solid strip about 3 inches wide down the center; with the cut strips forming a "fringe" on each side. Spread the ricotta mixture along the center strip. Fold the side strips over the ricotta mixture, alternating strips from each side. Pinch or twist the strips into knots to seal. Let the kuchen rest.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a medium bowl, prepare the streusel topping by mixing together the brown sugar, 3 tablespoons of butter, and amaretto creamer. Crumble topping over the top of the kuchen.
  • Bake 25 to 35 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Cool 20 minutes before serving.
