Apple Crisp Coffee Cake

Apple Crisp Coffee Cake

 

A moist and flavorful coffee cake studded with fresh apple chunks and with a crumb topping and brown sugar glaze. Every fall morning should be started this way.

Baked in a 9×13-inch pan, this Apple Crisp Coffee Cake is large enough to feed several large families.

Lots of chopped pecans in the topping give the coffee cake a buttery crunch.

I like to use a tart apple, like Granny Smith, to get a nice contrast with the sweet crumb topping and brown sugar glaze. Or use a mixture of Granny Smith and an apple like Honeycrisp which is a little sweeter and softer.

Some ground cinnamon gives plenty of fall flavor. You could top it with vanilla ice cream and serve it for dessert. Warm of course.

The wonderful scents coming from the oven as this coffee cake bakes……….Bonus Points.

Fall baking is so heavenly!

  1. Hi. I just made this tonight to share with some special people. It is excellent and easy to prepare. Thanks so much for sharing.

  2. Linda Haertel

    Made as written and delicious! I made them for a club dinner and took home an empty dish and lots of compliments! Thanks for sharing.

    1. I would use an 8 x 8 or a 9 x 9 square pan. Or you could possibly use an eight or 9 inch round cake pan, with a 3 inch side.

    I made this for a family breakfast. The analysis is make it again. Everyone liked it a whole lot. I think it would be best in the fall. The topping was just like apple crisp. I would personally add a teaspoon of cinnamon to cake batter.

  5. Simple and delicious.
    Favorable comments from those who tried it. Followed the recipe to a tee…

  6. Sorry, I don’t make anything that doesn’t include calorie count. I’ve worked hard to lose 45 pounds. It does look delicious though. Eat some for me.
