This German recipe—passed down by my grandma—is one of the first desserts I made when I was young. I remember patting the crust into the pan many times. Now I work at a bakery but still make it often, especially in the summer when fresh fruit is plentiful. —Connie Meiselwitz, Kiel, Wisconsin

Ingredients

CRUST:
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed

4 to 6 cups fresh fruit (quartered apples, peaches, plums, etc.)
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
CRUMB TOPPING:
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter, softened

In a bowl, combine flour, salt and sugar; cut in butter until mixture resembles cornmeal. Mix egg and milk; add to flour mixture.
