Ingredients

Coffee Cake
  • 3 eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 3/4 cups almond flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut flour
  • 10 tbsp butter or ghee room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • pinch sea salt
Crumb Topping
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp coconut oil or butter
Maple Glaze
  • 3 tbsp coconut butter
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch by 8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Make the crumb topping first. Combine all topping ingredients in a mixing bowl. Gently mix with hands or a fork. This mixture will be crumbly. Set aside.
  3. Next, make the coffee cake. Combine eggs and coconut sugar in a large mixing bowl. Once combined, add remaining coffee cake ingredients. Mix until smooth.
  4. Pour coffee cake mixture into baking pan. Sprinkle crumb on top.
  5. Then, bake for 27 to 29 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  6. Finally, let coffee cake cool completely before slicing into.
  7. To make the glaze, add coconut butter and coconut oil to a microwave safe dish. Microwave in 15 second increments until melted. Once cooled, stir in maple syrup.
  8. Lastly, pour glaze over cooled coffee cake.

Notes

  • When making coffee cake, be sure to mix ingredients until no clumps of flour remain.
  • Gently sprinkle crumb topping on top of batter.  Do not push topping into cake batter.
  • Bake 27 to 29 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.  Do not overbake!
  • Coconut butter is used in the glaze.  This is NOT the same thing as coconut oil.
  • Store leftovers covered at room temperature for 2 days or in the fridge for up to 4 days.
