This English Apple Coffee Cake goes perfectly with your Morning Coffee! I love the flavor of this apple cake with its crunchy topping. Yummy!
Jump to:
This English Apple Coffee Cake is great with a cup of coffee in the morning (or tea if that's your thing). I'm not a morning person and to be honest, I don't usually eat "breakfast" but when I make this Coffee Cake, I make an exception.
I used Granny Smith apples for this recipe but depending on where you live and the season, you might be limited on what types of apples you have access to.
As long as the apples are suitable for making Apple Pie, you should be fine. Some of the more popular types of apples for this and apple pie recipes would Golden Delicious, Fuji, Gala, Northern Spy, and Jonagold.
And don't just limit yourself to eating this in the morning. This apple cake is so good you can eat it for dessert!
