This Kuchen is made with applebutter and topped with a glaze.
My most
favorite coffee cake to make and eat is a German Kuchen. This recipe is not only easy and affordable
but I love all the variations I can make of it.
This is a great way to use up last year’s jam and make way for this
year’s preserves.
Kuchen
1½ c. flour*
2 t. baking powder
½ t. salt
¾ c. sugar
¼ c. oil
¾ c. milk
1 t. vanilla
1 egg
1 c. fruit preserves
Powdered sugar icing – optional
Preheat oven to 350°. Sift together
flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
Add oil, milk vanilla and egg.
Beat until thoroughly combined.
Pour into a lightly greased 8”X8” square baking pan. Top batter with preserves. Bake 40 to 50 minutes. Cool slightly. Drizzle with icing if desired. Serve warm.
*I
like to use 1 cup flour and ½ cup whole wheat flour.
The
other day I topped this with peach jam and ½ cup of frozen blueberries. Delicious!
We also love it made with apple butter (you could also add ¼ cup of
raisins), raspberry jam, blackberry jam, strawberry jam (drizzle with a little
cream cheese icing), even jelly works!
I
usually serve with a side of scrambled eggs or some homemade yogurt. I encourage you to give this one a try.
