Delicious! One of the best coffee cake recipes I have ever come across. Sometimes I substitute blueberries or strawberries for the apples and it tastes just as great. A nice treat for the whole family.

I've made this cake however it is slightly different. I bake it in a 9X13 pan. I use 4 cups of apples (apples you would use to make an apple pie). Not all apples are suitable. I use 1/4 c orange juice or apple juice. The coating for apples is 3 tsp cinnamon in 1/3 cup of sugar. It's always a winner.

i made it last week and everyone loved it! i didn't have vegetable oil( i realized until i was about to start) so i looked up for substitutes to it it said apple sauce or melted butter or margarine, so instead i added 1/2 cup of applesauce and 1/2 cup of melted butter. i didn't give it 5 stars b/c of the changes i made so i'm not sure how the original recipe would come out

Made this for Thanksgiving dinner and got wonderful compliments. Strangely though barely any of it was eaten...The apple and sugar layers saved it for me. The cake itself had the right texture but was very bland. I'll make apple coffee cake again because it's easy and I love baked apples, but I'll take the layers and put it into a different batter.

This cake was delicious. Yum, Yum, Yum!! Those who found it too dry must have over baked it.. It got rave reviews from my family. Easy to make, favorful, loaded with fresh apples and cinnamon...can't beat that combo...add a nice cup of fresh coffee..great way to start your day!

OK, but nothing special. Per other reviewers, I reduced the sugar, used some whole wheat flour, and used only brown sugar for the cinnamon-sugar mix. I had to add a little extra OJ because the batter was too thick. If I were to make it again, I'd put the first apple layer on the bottom of the pan so they're on top once the cake has been flipped. The apples on top got dry, and not all of the cinnamon-sugar melted before the cake was done. I'd also add some spice into the cake batter.
