Grandmas Old Fashioned Kuchen Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Lovethedepp / All my dishes 1 year, 4 months ago This was my Grandmother's recipe. When my son was about a year and half I made the mistake of letting him eat as much of Grandma's delicious plum kuchen as he wanted! We kept Pampers in business that week!! LOL Now I prefer it with any berry combination!... More Prep:15m Cook:60m Servings:16	Lovethedepp

Good morning, Thank you for sharing this recipe. It is a favorite of mine. And enough plums will do it to anyone.LOL. You have my 5 on this one. Have a wonderful day....Cheryl

This sounds great -- my ancestor's kuchen had a yeast dough base and a cottage cheese (like the consistency of quark) filling with fruit. I must put the recipe on, if I haven't already done so. Much more work than this though, but it would have a different taste. Must try this. Thanks!

That looks absolutely mouth-watering good...love a creamy, sweet, fruity kuchen, and the berry combination would be so perfect for this - just in time for all the blueberries and raspberries that are in season here right now...thanks for sharing your grandma's recipe!

This sounds really good. I bet apples would be really good in this.

This looks fantastic! I love Kuchen of any kind. I know there's no such thing as a dumb question, but here goes anyway. In the filling section you have 4T of flour listed. Do you mix that with the fruit, or with the sour cream, sugar, and eggs? I am saving this to print off when I have your answer. So yummy. Thanks for the post.

Thanks for this recipe! The sour cream filling sounds delicious! I can't wait to try out your recipe. Do you by any chance have a recipe for a Cheese Kuchen? I'd love to see it posted if you have one. And thanks for the story about your son! That was too funny!
