For this recipe, from my Woman's Day magazine, I used rhubarb and peaches and an oblong dish. The original recipe called for blueberries, peaches and plums and a 9" square baking pan.
This turned out moist and delicious, however, next time I might just add that extra rhubarb.
1 1⁄2 cups flour
1 t baking powder
1⁄4 t each ground cinnamon and salt
1 1⁄2 sticks (3⁄4 cup) unsalted butter, softened
3⁄4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 1⁄2 t vanilla extract
1⁄3 cup milk
about 1 1⁄2 cups rhubarb, sliced and divided
2 peaches, pitted and sliced
Topping
3 1/2 T each: flour and brown sugar
2 1/2 T unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1⁄4 t ground cinnamon
powdered sugar, for dusting
Preheat oven to 350°. Line a baking dish with foil; let foil extend over ends of pan. Spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar with a mixer on high speed for about 2 minutes or til smooth. Reduce speed to medium; beat in eggs and vanilla just til combined. On low speed, beat in flour mixture and milk til blended. Gently fold 1⁄2 cup rhubarb into batter.
Spread batter into prepared pan and spread in an even layer. Top with remaining rhubarb then peach slices, evenly spaced in batter. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, crumble topping ingredients together with fingers til clumps form; scatter over fruit. Bake 55 to 60 minutes, or til a pick inserted in the center comes out clean and kuchen starts to pull away slightly from sides of pan. Cool in pan on wire rack.
Lift foil by ends onto a work surface. Using 2 large spatulas, lift cake from foil onto a serving plate. Dust with powdered sugar. Cut into squares and serve.

This look incredibly delicious. I'm a sucker for peaches. Great photos! I love to see what I'm preparing. This is great. Thank you!! :D
That sounds really good! My guys love rhubarb so will have to try this for them!
Mmmm...
You always posts some really great recipes! Thank you for posting to Nummy Desserts. This one looks like a winner. Love rhubarb. I planted some last year, but it isn't big enough to harvest yet. I may have to move it to a sunnier location.
That looks great!!
the finished product looks pretty good~
I don't like when you post rhubarb recipes. :( I haven't had any in years, and I miss it.
I'd give it a whirl.
Dessert!!! You know I'd at least try it before deciding to eliminate the rhubarb and just ass more peaches instead.
That last photo of the finished pie is to die for ! Killer Kuchen !
Yum-yum! Looks delicious!!!
looks good thanks for sharing
Oooh! I like the sound of this! It looks yummy! I love anything with rhubarb!
Yummy! You can't go wrong with peaches as far as I'm concerned. Happy Friday to you.
This looks so wonderful I can't believe it!
That looks pretty yummy! Ya know, I actually made a sauerkraut kuchen for my hubby - it was more of a lunch thing than dessert of course. It included cheese and bacon. He saw something about sauerkraut pie on Bizzarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern, and wanted me to make him one (I did a sauerkraut custard pie for dessert after the kuchen). Sadly, he liked the sauerkraut pie better than the kuchen... I thought the kuchen was interesting, but didn't risk more than one bite because it had things I couldn't eat in it.
'kraut, bacon AND cheese? OMG!
We had been dating around two weeks when the first New Year we spent together happened. Growing up in Western Pennsylvania, we celebrated with goodluck sauerkraut and pork (usually kielbasa), mashed potatoes and dumplings. Well, we had to pick up my one son at the airport and ran late to start it. My then-new boyfriend volunteered to pick up pizzas and meet us back at the house. I had made a BIG deal about sauerkraut/keilbasa good luck meal, and was sad to not share it with him.
When we finally got home, he met us with two pizzas - one hamburger/mushroom, the other was, believe it or not, sauerkraut and kielbasa, with mozzarella cheese on top.
I asked him HOW he managed that - he went to the grocery store and bought the sauerkraut and kielbasa and had them put that on the pizza.
What was really amazing - he, my ex husband and my son all ate it and LIKED it - there were only two pieces left when it was all said and done?
I guess it tasted kind of like a cabbage roll, in a way...
OMG, I would eat that right up!
Looks very good. I guess I'll forgive you for the mites.
Whew!
Man, it looks good. Makes me want some of my mom's rhubarb cake.
Thanks for posting this to my group "Eating While Broke"!
