CHERRY SWIRL COFFEE CAKE



Cherry Swirl Coffee Cake image

There's nothing like a little piece of sweet coffee cake to go with your coffee or tea in the morning! And this is a great one if you like cherries and almond flavor together. If you're like me, you can even go with 2 tsp almond extract and skip the vanilla. You can also use other pie fillings to change the taste, although cherry is my favorite. This comes from one of my favorite and most used cookbooks, The Best of Mennonite Fellowship Meals.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cherries. Fresh cherries will give your coffee cake the best flavor. If you don't have fresh cherries, you can use frozen or canned cherries. Just be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the coffee cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a bundt pan. A bundt pan will give your coffee cake a beautiful shape. If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Bake the coffee cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the coffee cake is cooked through.
  • Let the coffee cake cool before glazing. This will help the glaze to set properly.
