I remember my mother making plum kuchen. She never followed a recipe, but this recipe tastes like hers. Ingredients:
2 eggs |
1/3 cup milk |
3 tablespoons butter, melted |
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1-1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
6 medium plums, pitted and halved |
whipped cream and additional ground nutmeg, optional |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, beat the eggs, milk and butter. Combine the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon, salt and nutmeg; add to the egg mixture and beat just until combined.
2. Pour into a greased 9-in. round baking pan. Place plums cut side up over batter. Combine remaining sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over the top. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve with whipped cream and sprinkle with nutmeg if desired. Yield: 6 servings.
