Mmm, a warm coffee cake. Comforting. Perfect with a hot cup of coffee on a winter’s morning.
My husband loves coffee cake, and this one is no slouch. This makes a great breakfast or brunch item, or just a fantastic snack. I plan on enjoying some while sitting in front of my Christmas tree this holiday season.
A few things about this coffee cake recipe – it is not picky at all. No need to sift any dry ingredients, no particular order to mix the ingredients. One thing you do want to note though is the baking time. The baking time for this cake may vary. I used a glass pan for baking this cake, so if you use a metal pan the baking time may vary quite a bit from what I’ve stated in the recipe and you should watch it near the end of the baking time to be sure it doesn’t over bake.
