Macadamia Nuts.....
Coconut....
...sounds like a tropical vacation, doesn't it?
Yum! I just bought (TWO COPIES!) of this book: Coffee Cakes: Simple, Sweet, and Savory
by Lou Seibert Pappas. I've been feeling like I need a few more coffee cakes in my repertoire. Then last week, I stumbled upon this book.It was hard to decide where to begin, but I chose Banana, Macadamia Nut, and Coconut Coffee Cake. It's almost tropical tasting with the macadamia nuts and coconut and it's really, really moist!
Here's a link to the recipe. I followed it to the letter, except I had to bake mine about 15 minutes more that the recipe states.
Would you like my other, brand-new copy?
Leave a comment telling me your favorite coffee cake flavor. PLEASE make sure your entry links to a blog or leave an email in your comment...unless I know where to find you already. :)
The random generator will pick a lucky number on Sunday evening.
Good luck!
Welcome to Bake at 350! I'm Bridget and I like all things sweet...especially cookie decorating. I hope you'll find some inspiration here. So, grab a chair (and a cookie) and let's get baking! [
Ive found nothing is better on a hot summery day than some iced coffee and pumpkin bread!
ReplyDeleteI like the iced coffee cake with a swirl of cinnamon thru it and really dense...oh yummy...and let's not forget the crumble coffee cake.
ReplyDeleteI would love a cookbook with ideas for more since I usually end up with the same.
Thanks.
Heather

ReplyDeletemmmm... Apple Cinnamon for me. Please.
ReplyDeleteJust a plain old sour cream coffee cake with cinnamon streusel. YUM!
ReplyDeleteYou are SO bad for my diet!!! I should really just unsubscribe but I know that will never happen! I love all kinds (which is why I'm on a diet!!!) but I think my favorite is nice traditional cinnamon. YUMMO!!!
ReplyDeleteI like mine with walnuts in it and lots of cinnamon of course!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite coffee cake is blueberry. I have wonderful memories of visiting my grandma in Michigan--we would spend the day picking blueberries and then come home and bake a blueberry coffee cake together. To this day, it is still my very favorite breakfast food!
ReplyDeleteI love the barefoot contessa blueberry strussel coffee cake...turns out perfectly every time! But I'd love some new recipe ideas!
ReplyDeleteI love anything with apples and cinnamon. mmmm....

ReplyDeleteI like the Sara Lee coffee cake! :)
ReplyDeleteI made a blackberry coffee cake ( I ran out of blueberries) Soo good! It was a little tart, but the sweet crumb topping set it off great!!

ReplyDeleteWow...that cake looks delish! I guess my favorite is rather old-fashioned...lots & lots of cinnamon & nuts.
ReplyDeleteJust thinking about coffee cake makes me hungry...I need to go bake! Thanks for the chance to win.
My favorite is a classic cinnamon sour cream coffee cake. But I would love to try some new ones.
ReplyDeleteI love a blueberry crumble coffee cake w/ a PERFECT streusel on top. Can you EVER really have enough of a crumb topping? I don't THINK so!
ReplyDeleteThis recipe is fabulous and quite addictive. I love that it's even better with FROZEN wild blueberries, no need to wait for them to be in season:

My mother makes the most amazing Spanish coffee cake. There is nothing Spanish about it, and neither of us know why it is called that, but it's one of my favorite treats.
ReplyDeleteHi Bridget!! I definately have to make this coffee cake..oh my diet!! I love Paula Deens Ulitmate Coffee cake with butterscotch pudding mix, brown sugar, butter of course and pecans it is YUMMY!!!

I'd have to say I've not experienced a whole lot of coffee cakes... perhaps I do need this book... but I love something with cinnamon and pecans.
ReplyDeleteCinnamon swirl - no nuts. :)
ReplyDeleteCoffee cakes, yummmmm! My favorite is a moravian sugar cake! I love to buy one when I am in Winston-Salem NC, but I have a recipe that makes a fabulous one!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite coffee cake is a sour cream cake with cinnamon and pecans on top - it was my grandmother's recipe, and it is delicious!
ReplyDeleteI love any coffee cake with lots of icing! Yummy.
ReplyDeletemine is cinnamon... very dull I know...
ReplyDeleteWOW, that looks amazing!!
ReplyDeleteHmm, favorite coffee cake flavor. Well, the rhubarb coffee cake I made recently was pretty darn good - but I think I'm still going to have to go with pumpkin since it reminds me of my favorite season - autumn. :-)
The coffee cake you made looks amazing! I am a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to coffee cake though so my favorite flavor is cinnamon.
ReplyDeleteNow I am definetly hungry. lol Any coffee cake with cinnamon, and lots of it. But coconut that would be interesting. Would love to try it.
ReplyDeleteI have a recipe for a sour cream coffee cake that has tart cherry preserves swirled through it. It is simply amazing!
ReplyDeleteI'm a simple girl when it comes to coffee cake - cream cheese coffee cake will do!
ReplyDeleteI have a Blueberry Cake recipe that we love for a coffee cake.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog!
ReplyDeleteI have always liked plain ordinary cinnamon coffee cake. Nothing fancy! A crumbly topping of course.
i love blueberry crumble and i want to try this one you just made it looks soo good :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite flavor is the plain old crumble coffee cake. Those crumbles are to die for! But then again, maybe that's because I haven't had the chance to try a lot of other flavors... this book would certainly remedy THAT problem! :) Thanks for the chance! jadensmail at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteI love Apple Coffee Cake! Yum! I usually top with a glaze made from apple cider.
ReplyDeleteI love coffee cakes that have tons of cinnamon in them and are dense and moist.
ReplyDeleteIn my quest to reduce my waistline, however, I've not had a piece in a long while. Perhaps I could find a reduced calorie recipe in this cookbook?
Thanks!

I agree with some of your other commenters (is that a word?!?!) I like the plain jane coffee cake the best. Thanks for the great give away and the great blog.

ReplyDeleteoooOOOooo I would love to win a coffee cake cookbook! One of my favorites, in case you're interested in another recipe, is apple coffee cake from SimplyRecipes. It's delicious and only needs one apple! So tasty...
ReplyDelete~ Jenny

ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! My favorite coffee cake is filled with Raspberry preserves and drizzled with frosting. I am sure it has a name I just cant think of it.

I haven't met a coffee cake I didn't like.
ReplyDeleteSadly, I've never been able to say "no" to a coffee cake. My very favorite would have to be cinnamon streusel though. YUM!
ReplyDeleteI would love to add some new coffee cakes to my repertoire. i find I keep coming back to the same ones. Thanks,
ReplyDeletethat coffee cake looks delicious
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know that we made this coffee cake yesterday for a 4th of July brunch. It was really good then, but today the leftovers were AMAZING!! The flavors became more pronounced with a little time. Yum- thanks for the recipe!
