Zubereitung von German Fresh Peach Kuchen
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Place fresh peaches in a large bowl and pour boiling water over them to cover. Let stand for 1 minute to loosen skins.
- Drain the peaches and immediately plunge them into cold water for a few seconds to prevent softening. Remove and pat dry.
- Peel and slice the peaches. You should have approximately 6 cups of sliced peaches.
- In a large bowl, gently toss the sliced peaches with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to prevent browning.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir in 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
- Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan or 9-inch round cake pan.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- In a small bowl, combine ¼ cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Arrange the drained peach slices on top of the batter, starting around the edges and filling the center.
- Sprinkle the sugar-cinnamon mixture evenly over the peaches.
- Bake for 25 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 egg yolk and 2 tablespoons heavy cream.
- Carefully pour the egg yolk mixture over the peaches.
- Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the peaches are tender.
- Let cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack before removing the sides of the springform pan (if using).
- Serve warm, cut into wedges, and topped with sweetened whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
