Cranberry Coffee Cake Recipe
Description
The Cranberry Coffee Cake Recipe combines a soft coffee cake made from oat flour, almond milk, and honey with a vibrant cranberry layer and an oat crumble topping. The cranberries are simmered in honey until they break down slightly, adding a tart and subtle sweetness that contrasts with the mild, naturally sweet cake batter. Baking results in a coffee cake with a tender crumb enhanced by the oat-based crumble's crisp texture.
Cooking at 375°F for 35 to 40 minutes ensures the edges develop a golden brown color while the center remains moist. The cake cools slightly to allow the flavors to settle and the crumble to firm up. This cake suits informal occasions where a fruit-forward, less sugary sweet bread is welcome alongside coffee or tea.
Ingredients
The Coffee Cake
- 1 cup milk we use almond, but any neutral flavoured milk will work
- ½ cup coconut oil melted
- ½ cup honey or maple syrup
- 2 large egg
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1 ¾ cups oat flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt sea salt
The Cranberry Layer
- 4 cups Cranberry fresh or frozen
- ¼ cup honey
The Crumble
- ¾ cups oats
- ¼ cups coconut sugar
- ¼ cup coconut oil melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 9x11-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Begin by making the cranberry layer, add the cranberries and honey to a small pot. Bring them to a simmer over medium-high heat and simmer for 4-5 minutes, until the cranberries begin to break down.
- To make the crumble, mix the oats, coconut sugar, and melted coconut oil in a small bowl.
- In a large bowl, whisk the milk, melted coconut oil, honey, eggs, and vanilla.
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the oat flour, baking powder, and sea salt. Add these dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and dot the cranberries over the batter - the batter is quite thin so the cranberries will fall into the batter a little. Top with the crumble.
- Bake the cranberry coffee cake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until it puffs up slightly and the edges start to brown. Let the cake cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting it into 12 slices and serving.
