When I came across the recipe in one of my mother’s old cookbooks, I was completely drawn in. First of all, anything found in a tattered, dusty cookbook immediately makes me feel like I tapped a goldmine. Second was the German aspect of it. See, my mother spent much of her youth/adolescence in Europe. So again, there was a connection.
Preheat oven to 400ºF.
Sift flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, baking powder, and salt into a mixing bowl. Cut in butter until crumbly.
Press mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a lightly greased 9-inch springform pan. Arrange peaches evenly over the crumbs.
Combine remaining 1/2 cup of sugar with the cinnamon. Mix well and sprinkle over peaches. Bake at 400ºF for 15 minutes.
Blend egg yolks with sour cream and spoon over peaches. Bake another 20 minutes or until golden.

Don’t try this without looking at the source recipe on her website. Turns out “1/2 dashes of butter” is a full stick (1/2 cup)! Tried interpreting and used 1/2 stick – Baked raw flour for Sunday breakfast! Yum! Someone needs to edit this!

Don’t try this recipe without viewing the original on her website! Turns out “1/2 dashes” of butter is 1/2 cup – a full stick. Even interpreting at 1/2 stick – well, let’s just say baked raw flour for Sunday breakfast – YUM!

There’s a problem with the recipe – what does “1/2 dashes of butter” mean? Tried as much as 1/2 stick and still got baked raw flour! Had to bake for almost double time stated and still got baked raw flour! Willing to assume it’s me but the recipe is still wrong!
