A few weeks ago I made the Master Recipe for the Coffee Cake Mix. So I thought I would try another variation. This one takes a bit more time to put together, but it’s absolutely worth it.
Apple and cheddar cheese go together so nicely. They definitely work in this recipe.
The apples are interesting. Mixed with the cinnamon candies gives them a very interesting cinnamon flavor. It isn’t too strong but you can taste it!
The coffee cake mix did not disappoint. The cake was just as light and fluffy two weeks later as it was the first time I used it.
The oatmeal topping gives a nice bit of crunch and sweetness to the cake.
I doubled the recipe this time so we had a coffee cake for home and one for my husband to take to work with him. He is the boss and likes to bring in treats for the people who work for him. I am more than happy to oblige, I really do like cooking!
Don’t worry, I will be trying more coffee cake variations and posting them soon!
