Cinnamon Coffee Cake

 Heather (Maine) says:
Overall great recipe!! I did substitute half the white sugar for brown sugar to add a little more sweetness. I also folded two medium sized apples peeled and chopped into the cake mixture. I also added walnuts to crumb topping. Yes this isn't the exact recipe because I added a few things but it's a good base recipe. When pouring it into an 8x8 square oven safe glass dish I did half the cake mixture then half the crumb topping. Repeat. Yummy!

So easy and delicious! I used brown sugar instead of white sugar for the cinnamon topping. It was very good. Not too rich and perfect with an afternoon cup of coffee.

Love this recipe. I added vanilla and use brown sugar instead of white plus ran out of cinnamon just put 1/2 tsp., but overall it was a success.

It was easy to make. I did the cinnamon topping, and found that it took about 30 minutes to bake. I think that I will add vanilla when I make it again.

Always a favorite. I add 1 teaspoon of vanilla to the batter and substitute 1/2 cup packed brown sugar for the sugar in the topping.
