Peach Kuchen Bars



This was my first attempt to make a kuchen and it turned out very good.  Next time, I will be making the original kuchens that are popular here in North Dakota.  They make them sooo good out in the middle regions of the state.  If ever traveling through, stop in a small town and head to their grocery stores for kuchen and sausage.  I chose peach because it’s my favorite but you can use any of your favorite fruits. 
 
Peach Kuchen Bars

Crust –
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking powder
2 cups flour
Mix together and spread out over a greased 13 x 9 x 2 pan.  It’s easiest to lightly wet your fingers for spreading the dough.  Make sure to make an rim along the edges of the pan to hold the custard filling.

Thaw 1 package (16 oz) of frozen peach slices.  Cut each slice in half (lengthwise) and place evenly over the crust.

Custard –
4 large eggs
½ cup sugar
2 tbsp flour
2 cups whipping cream
Stir together and pour over the peaches.  Sprinkle cinnamon on top of the custard.  Bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until custard is set

  1. You mentioned Kuchen from North Dakota and that is where I am from
    Used to go to the Hornbachers in Fargo and get Grandmas Kuchen, it is best I have ever tasted and you can go directly to their shop in Ashley ND and buy from them
