My comforting cinnamon peach kuchen showcases fresh summer fruit. You can use other stone fruits, too, such as plums or nectarines. This is one of those homey desserts that is perfect with a scoop of ice cream on top! —Mary Bilyeu, Ann Arbor, Michigan

Test Kitchen tips
  • The texture of this kuchen is more coarse than cake, but it's still tender.
  • A hint of ginger complements the cinnamon and peach flavors. If you can't find the crystallized ginger (in some stores, it's available only during the holidays), you can make your own or just add a dash of ground ginger.
