Instructions

Prepare Almond Streusel Topping

  • In a small bowl, rub the butter into the flour and sugar. Add the almonds and toss to combine. Set aside.

Prepare Peach Filling

  • Mix sliced peaches, sugar, cornstarch and almond extract in a medium bowl and let sit until peaches release their juices.

Prepare Kuchen Batter:

  • Preheat an oven to 350º F. Butter a 9 Inch Spring Form Pan and set aside.
  • Dry Ingredients: Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Wet Ingredients: Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the almond and vanilla extracts, followed by the egg and milk. Fold in the dry ingredients into the wet ones.
  • Spread the batter in the prepared pan and spread the Peach Filling evenly over the batter. DO not use the peach juices as this will make the batter too runny.
  • Sprinkle the almond streusel topping evenly over the top of the cake.
  • Bake until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 45 to 60 minutes.
  • Cool the cake in the pan for 15 minutes before removing the springform pan. Do not remove earlier than that.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature, sprinkled with powdered sugar.
