To make it even, take it to a friends for coffee or invite them over, this way you don’t eat the whole thing yourself. Because you will want to. Just like I always want to eat all the coffee cake muffins when I make them.

  • 1/2 cup of butter/margarine melted
  • 1 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups of flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cups of peeled chopped apple

How to make Apple Coffee Cake with Crumble Topping & Brown Sugar Glaze

Start by preheat oven at 350, grease baking dish.

I throw everything but the apples into a large bowl and use my mixer on med-high until completely mixed and then fold in the apples. Pour into greased pan.

When mixing the crumble, use a fork and work it until it resembles coarse crumbs, sprinkle over cake. It takes a bit of working to get it.

Bake for 40 minutes.

Mix the coffee cake glaze ingredients until smooth, drizzle over cake once the cake has cooled down quite a bit. Let it harden slightly, if you can wait that long. It is amazing cold, but even better served warm.

We have been enjoying this a lot. We’ve brought it to family pot lucks, and shared the recipe with others for them to try it as well. Super easy and delicious.

I personally prefer to leave the glaze off it… I find it almost too sweet, and let’s face it, it’ not the healthiest cake.
