It’s Pumpkin Again!!! I know you all must think that I can’t make any other type of baked good right now. I can…. but I don’t want to!!! I only have a few more weeks of delicious Pumpkin Baking and I am going to get as much in as I can!
This coffee cake was made for the girls at work and I can tell you that it barely lasted the day. Not only that I have been hearing ever since then how much they loved it and will I please make it again!
I know that your family will love this just as much. This is perfect for Brunch or a Sunday Morning Treat!
This recipe is easy to make and as you can see that it makes two coffee cakes. One to love and one to share! See all that gooey Cinnamon Glaze…… oh that tastes so good!

You can easily half the recipe if you only want to make one coffee cake. But seriously why would you? You won’t be able to get enough of that sweet crunchy sugary cinnamon strudel topping!!!
Using pumpkin always makes baked goods puff up and the texture is so smooth and moist. I love using pumpkin in cakes not only for the flavor but for the great texture that it creates.
Well, let’s face it….. by all the pumpkin posts that I have been doing I just plain ole LOVE Pumpkin!
You will love this Coffee Cake. I promise!
