Sunset Books Low-fat Vegetarian describes Kuchen as a traditionally sweet, fruit or cheese-filled yeast coffeecake. This version is meant to be served for lunch or supper. It is such a pretty dish and always leaves me in awe.

Ingredients
  • Kuchen:
  • 3 1/2 C (about 8 oz.) Broccoli Flowerets
  • 1/2 C Yellow Cornmeal
  • 1/2 C all-purpose Flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp. Baking Powder
  • 1 C nonfat Cottage Cheese
  • 1 large Egg
  • 3 large Egg Whites
  • 1/2 C low-fat Buttermilk
  • 2 Tbl. Butter or Margarine, melted
  • Yogurt Sauce:
  • 1 C plain nonfat Yogurt
  • 1/4 C white wine Vinegar
  • 2 Tbl. dried Dill Weed (or to taste)
  • 1 tsp. Honey
  • 1/4 tsp. ground Cumin

Directions
  1. In a 4-5 quart pan, bring 8 C water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add broccoli and cook just until barely tender-crisp to bite (about 4 minutes). Drain, immerse in ice water until cool, and drain well again.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together cornmeal, flour, and baking powder.
  3. In a small bowl, beat cottage cheese, egg, egg whites, buttermilk, butter, and sugar until well blended.
  4. Add cheese mixture to cornmeal mixture and stir just until dry ingredients are evenly moistened.
  5. Pour batter into greased 8-inch round baking pan or quiche dish.
  6. Gently press broccoli decoratively into batter.
  7. Bake in a 350 oven until center feels firm when lightly pressed (about 30 minutes.)
  8. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together yogurt, vinegar, dill weed, honey, and cumin just until blended. Set aside.
  9. Let kuchen cool slightly; then cut into wedges. Offer yogurt sauce to spoon over individual portions.

Hmm..when I see "Kuchen" I'd think nuts and coffee glaze or cinnamon streusel lol but this might be one way to get me to eat my brocolli ;) Great idea even if I'm not enamoured of the little green critters *grin* Oh, wait a minute, it's "quiche like"? Well then, that changes EVERYTHING LMAO
