Apple Spice Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Butter the inside of an 8-inch glass baking pan.
• Mix flour, brown sugar, oil, white sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, salt, and ginger together in a large bowl. Transfer 1/2 cup of the mixture into a second bowl for the crumble topping; stir in remaining 2 teaspoons cinnamon.
• Whisk baking powder and baking soda into the flour mixture.
• Beat buttermilk and egg together in a measuring cup to combine. Pour into the large bowl of flour mixture; add apples. Stir until just blended and no pockets of flour remain. Pour mixture into the prepared pan; cover with the crumble topping.
• Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out dry, 40 to 50 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. For Cake: Sift together all the dry ingredients several times - cake and muffin mix, instant coffee, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
• 2. In stand mixer, using paddle, starting on slow speed blend dry ingredients with eggs (one at a time).
• 3. Add yogurt, milk, oil. Blend on medium speed for 2-3 minutes.
• 4. Add apples and nuts. Blend a few more minutes until all ingredients are incorporated scraping the sides often.
• 5. CINNAMON SWIRL (best to do this after batter has been mixed as it only takes a minute). Melt butter. Add sugars and cinnamon. If mixture is too thick add a few teaspoons of milk until the consistency of gravy.
• 6. Pour your batters in prepared pans. For this one I used 6 mini loaf pans, filling to about 3/4 full. Test Kitchen Note: We used a 9x13 pan.
• 7. Dollop cinnamon swirl onto the batter 2 tablespoons at a time.
• 8. With a knife, gently swirl the cinnamon through being careful not to touch the bottom. NOTE: I learned the hard way, it sticks to the bottom and cake is difficult to get out.
• 9. BAKE @ 350 for how however many minutes, depending on size pan. For the mini loaf pans, it took 30-33 minutes. It also depends on your oven. Test Kitchen Note: It took 40 minutes for our 9x13 pan.
• 10. If you want an icing, with a mix whisk 3 tbsp of powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp vanilla and 1-2 tbsp of almond milk.
• 11. Drizzle or spread over cooled cakes.
