This perfect Vegan Coffee Cake is rich, crumbly, and will be the star at your next brunch!
I have fond memories of coffee cake! There’s a local shop restaurant in my hometown that sells coffee cake and it’s AMAZING. I still remember the day my sister brought me there and made me try their coffee cake. At that time in my life, I was picky about what kind of cakes I eat, just because I was in sports and needed to be in tip-top shape. But she insisted and I never looked back. (Thank you sister!!!!)
I remember eating there at least once a month with my high school friends, sometimes just ordering the coffee cake. There’s something about brown sugar and cinnamon that get’s you addicted. Am I right?
Anyways, I’m taking my baking to the next level and decided to make vegan coffee cake. This recipe tastes absolutely the same as the coffee cake I used to eat. Give it a try and let me know in the comments how it goes for you!
