APRICOT KUCHEN



Apricot Kuchen image

I have no idea how old this recipe is, but the measurement "1/2 eggshell" makes me think it had been around for a while before my mom found it. Anyone with an apricot tree must have this recipe! :-) Note: it freezes well, and it's heavenly served warm with vanilla ice cream. Number of servings is hard to say; I could eat one by myself, no problem.

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 kuchens, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/4 cups sugar, divided
1 egg
water, 1/2 eggshell full
2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
12 -16 apricots, fresh (depends on their size)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Cream butter and 1 cup of the sugar.
  • Add egg and water.
  • Stir in flour and baking powder. Dough will be stiff.
  • Press into two greased 9" cake pans with your hands. Do not try to push the dough up the sides.
  • Press halved apricots into the top of the dough, cut side up, placing them as close together as possible while leaving a little gap in between. Don't let them touch the sides of the pans.
  • Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup sugar over all.
  • Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, until dough is no longer wet-looking. Watch the color of the edges carefully.
  • Allow the kuchens to cool for at least 10 minutes before removing them from the pans. They break easily, so the old plate-on-top-and-flip technique is best for removing them in their entirety.

  • Heat the milk to 110° and transfer it to a small bowl. Stir in the yeast and let stand for 5 minutes, until dissolved. Stir in the egg. In a large bowl of a standing electric mixer fitted with a dough hook, mix the 4 cups of flour with the sugar and salt; add the warm milk mixture and knead at medium-low speed until a stiff dough forms, about 3 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour with 1/4 cup of the sugar and 1/4 cup of the milk and whisk to a paste. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla. In a medium saucepan, heat the remaining 1 1/4 cups of milk and 1/4 cup of sugar over moderate heat until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Butter four 9-inch pie plates. Divide the dough into 4 pieces and flatten into disks (it will be a firm dough). On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each disk of dough to a 9 1/2-inch round.
  • Preheat the oven to 350° and set racks in the upper and lower thirds. Lightly press the dough with your fingers to deflate it. Arrange the apricots on the bottom in a single layer.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the sugar with the flour and butter and rub with your fingers until the texture is sandy. Sprinkle the topping over the pastry cream and dust lightly with cinnamon.
