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
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch by 8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- 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.
- 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.
- Pour coffee cake mixture into baking pan. Sprinkle crumb on top.
- Then, bake for 27 to 29 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Finally, let coffee cake cool completely before slicing into.
- 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.
- 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.
