PLUM STREUSEL KUCHEN
This recipe is actually called "platz" in German (meaning "flat") and has been in my family since before I was born. The fresh fruits of summer make it a favorite, and it's simply wonderful warm out of the oven. We enjoy this German plum cake with ice cream or whipped cream, too. -Lisa Warkentin, Winnipeg, Manitoba

STREUSEL PLUM CAKE
This cake is low in fat and not too sweet. The glaze is optional, it takes a minute to prepare and adds only a few more calories. Great way to use up fresh plumbs in season. We like it best without the glaze, which also helps the diabetic.

GERMAN PLUM CAKE WITH STREUSEL
A delightful, sweet dessert cake perfect for September when plums are plentiful. A streusel top covers fresh plums atop a sweet lemon cake with hints of almond, atop lightly toasted almonds on the bottom. The yellow from the lemon zest and the red from the plum skins add striking visual appeal. Serve with whipped cream.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch springform pan.
- Lay plum slices flat in a single layer on paper towels to dehydrate slightly while you prepare the cake.
- Prepare almond crust: Mix almonds and sour cream in a saute pan. Gently saute over medium heat, being careful not to overcook, until almonds are lightly toasted, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and add salt. Crush almonds manually into smaller pieces and distribute evenly across the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Prepare batter: mix marzipan and softened butter in a large bowl until mostly well blended. Mix in 6 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon sugar and lemon zest until well combined. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Whisk 1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour with baking powder in a separate bowl. Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients until well combined.
- Place large spoonfuls of batter over the almond crust. Use the spoon to carefully push the top of the batter from the center of the pan outwards towards the edges, spreading evenly and being careful not to displace the almonds.
- Arrange multiple layers of plum slices over the batter, pressing down a bit after each layer, except the top one; you will likely have 3 to 4 plum layers.
- Prepare streusel: Mix sugar, melted butter, and vanilla in a bowl until well combined. Blend in 3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour by hand until crumbly. Sprinkle streusel evenly over the cake.
- Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking for doneness at about 48 minutes, though it may take 10 minutes longer if the plums are very juicy. Do not overcook the streusel layer.
- Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Remove sides and let cool completely before serving, about 30 minutes.

- Place the flour, sugar and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and pour in the yeast mixture, melted warm (not hot) butter, eggs and vanilla extract. Give it an initial stir to combine the ingredients and then attach a dough hook and knead it on the bread setting ("2") for 4-5 minutes, adding the remaining 1/4 cup milk as necessary. (The dough will be sticky but should hold together fairly well. It will not be firm enough to knead into a ball, think of it more as a thick batter.) Cover it loosely with plastic wrap and set it in a warm, draft free place to rise for an hour or until about doubled in size.
- Generously butter a German Backblech extended to full length or a large jelly roll pan (at least 18 inches in length and 1 inch sides but even then the crust will be thicker than with the Backblech).
- Use your hands to spread the dough out across the full length of the pan, pressing it up against the sides. (It's yeast dough so it will resist, but just keep pushing it back into position the best you can. Once you put the plums on it, those will help keep it in place.) Lay the plums close together in rows over the whole length of the dough on the sheet pan. (If you want your cake a bit sweeter you can sprinkle it *lightly* with sugar or cinnamon-sugar if you prefer more cinnamon. I emphasize "lightly" because the more sugar you add the more watery the cake will be as the sugar liquifies during baking and your streusel will also "melt" in contact with it.)
