This layered coffee cake comes together easily with canned pie filling and other pantry staples. I enjoy making it for my family or even to celebrate co-workers' birthdays, writes Joan Kuderer from Sparta, Wisconsin. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1 cup sugar |
3 eggs |
3 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
1-1/2 cups milk |
1 can (21 ounces) apple pie filling |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
topping: |
1/2 cup chopped walnuts |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
glaze: |
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar |
1 tablespoon butter, softened |
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 to 3 teaspoons water |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar. Beat in eggs. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk. Pour half into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Combine pie filling and cinnamon; spoon over batter. Drop remaining batter over filling; spread gently. 2. Combine topping ingredients; sprinkle over batter. Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Combine glaze ingredients; drizzle over warm or cooled coffee cake. Yield: 12-15 servings. |
