Who does not enjoy a great cup of hot coffee with a piece of decadent, sweet cake? Add some fresh apples, and you have the perfect fall cake to be served with Sunday brunch or an afternoon pick-me-up with a cup of tea.
Coffee cake is a cake flavored with or intended to be eaten with coffee. Most countries have their own varying versions, with the American variety presented as a single layer, usually in a Bundt pan or loaf pan for easy slicing and flavored with either fruit or cinnamon.
