Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Mix 1 1/4 cup flour, baking powder, 2 tsp sugar, and salt and sift once.
  • Cut 1/2 cup butter into dry mix with a pastry blender to pea size.
  • In a small bowl, beat egg with 2 T milk and add to dry mix.
  • Mix thoroughly and pat dough into a greased or oiled 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Pare and core apples.
  • Cut into thin wedge slices and place on dough in rows until covered. We would cover the thin end of one apple with the thick end of the other.
  • Dot apples with 2 T butter and mix 3/4 cup sugar, 1 1/2 Tbs flour and cinnamon together.
  • Spread dry topping over dotted apples, and bake in oven for 30-45 minutes, until golden brown.

1 1/4 cups white flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons white flour

OMA'S APFELKUCHEN (GRANDMA'S APPLE CAKE)

My husband's German family calls this Oma's apfelkuchen, which translates to "Grandma's apple cake." They've been sharing the recipe for more than 150 years. I use Granny Smith apples, but any variety works. -Amy Kirchen, Loveland, Ohio

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Let egg yolks stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Starting 1/2 in. from 1 end, cut apple halves lengthwise into 1/4-in. slices, leaving them attached at the top so they fan out slightly. Set aside., Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add egg yolks, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. In another bowl, sift flour, cornstarch, cream of tartar, baking powder and salt twice. Gradually beat into creamed mixture. Add milk; mix well (batter will be thick)., Spread batter into a greased 9-in. springform pan wrapped in a sheet of heavy-duty foil. Gently press apples, round side up, into batter. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs, 45-55 minutes. Cool on a wire rack 10 minutes. Loosen sides from pan with a knife; remove foil. Cool 1 hour longer. Remove rim from pan. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

GRANDMA'S APPLE KUCHEN

My grandma worked as an accountant full time and baked every Saturday for the week. This is one of many Kuchens she baked every week. Apple was always a favorite.

Steps:

  • 1. In a stand mixer, mix the warm water, honey, and yeast until the honey is dissolved. Let the mixture sit for 10-15 minutes until slightly frothy.
  • 2. Mix in flour, eggs, salt, and canola oil until just combined. Switch to a dough hook attachment and knead until the dough comes together. Ball up the dough on the bottom of the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let sit for 2 hours. Dough will rise to double in size and get a little poofy.
  • 3. Place a 9-inch spring-form pan on a cookie sheet and coat with cooking spray. Mix cut up apples with cinnamon and sugar (I used more cinnamon than the original recipe because I love it).
  • 4. Transfer dough to a greased surface and flatten in a rectangle (about 8x10 inches). Place half the apples down the center of the dough (long-ways) and fold over half the dough. Then, place the other half of the apples on the folded part and fold over the other side. With a knife or pizza cutter (I thought the pizza cutter was easier) slice the dough down the middle long-ways and then slice about 8 times on the sides. The apples will fall out, don't worry about it.
  • 5. Place the dough pieces on the bottom of the spring-form pan so that they are all smashed together. Place any of the fallen apples on the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 1 hour.
  • 6. Preheat oven to 325-degrees. Brush the top of the bread with an egg wash (1 egg and a tbsp of water) and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 55-60 minutes. Mine took 60. Serve warm and drizzeled with honey if you want!

1/4 c honey
1 pkg active dry yeast
1/2 c water, warm
4 c all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
2 large eggs
6 Tbsp canola oil
2 large gala apples, not peeled, cored and chunked
1/2 tsp cinnamon, ground
1/4 c sugar
honey to drizzle

APPLE KUCHEN

These bars should be made by patient bakers with a bit of time - they look best when the apples are lined up in neat columns. This is not to say that it makes any difference in the way they taste.
