Apple Kuchen

Submitted by: Cathy

This is a delicious German recipe.

It can also be used with pears (Pear

Kuchen), using 32 ounces canned pears

(drained) and 1 box devil's food cake

mix; or peaches (Peach Kuchen), using

29 ounces canned sliced peaches

(drained) and 1 box of white cake mix.

But this is the recipe that I use all

the time.

Ingredients:

1 (18.25 ounce) box yellow cake mix

1/4 cup margarine, softened

1/2 cup flaked coconut

4 or 5 large baking apples (like Granny Smith)

1/2 cup white sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 cup sour cream

1 egg

Directions:

Peel, core, and cut each

apples into 8 wedges.

Cut margarine into DRY cake mix until

crumbly.

Mix in coconut and pat lightly into

a 13 x 9-inch greased and floured pan,

building up the edges slightly.

Arrange the apple wedges on top.

Mix the cinnamon and sugar and

sprinkle over the apples.

Mix the sour cream and egg and drizzle

over the top (this does NOT completely

cover the apples).

Bake for about 30-40 minutes in a

preheated 350 degree F oven or until

the edges are golden and the apples

are tender.

Makes enough for 6 -8 hungry people
