Star Coins

Sternentaler

Quark-oil dough pastries topped with plums, cherry jam, and streusel

Origin

Sternentaler—star coins—are the kind of pastry German bakery counters sell by the tray: rounds of quark-oil dough baked up tender, then topped with plums, cherry jam, and a crumble of streusel. Quark-oil dough is a German bakery staple, a quick dough that bakes crisp at the edge and stays tender underneath the fruit. Oma's version keeps the toppings generous and the glaze glossy.

Perfect For

Hand-held and cheerful, these are the pastry for market strolls, brunch tables, and lunchboxes. Gluten-free without compromise, so everyone picks one up. They pair well with coffee in the morning and are just as welcome with afternoon tea.
