Hmm..First of all, i'm a bit confused.. Should i chopped the apples and nut coarsely or fine? Does it require 500gr of apples AFTER it's been peeled n cored or BEFORE it's been peeled n cored? I must say the finish product doesn't really impress me. After 1hour it was finish, but after i left it for about 20mnts and cut it, the part around the apples was a bit soggy and tasted like eating spiced fruit. Maybe because i substitute 1cup oil for applesauce..who knows.. It gets better with the topping though (i only use 1/2 recipe and add 1tsp of ground coffee to balance out the sweetness and added flavour).

Yummy! Just made this and the kids love it. The 1yr old is throwing a tantrum bc he wants more! Of course I made some alterations (dont we all?)... 1 c oil instead of 1.5, added 1/3 c cinnamon applesauce, omitted the nuts due to allergies, and made these into mini-muffins instead of a cake. Making mini-muffins makes it so much easier to pack them as a snack for the kids to bring to school, as well as, being much less messy than giving them a whole slice of cake.

This coffee cake was awesome! I used all applesauce instead of the oil, and it turned out great. Even with the sauce poured on top, the coffee cake stayed good for the 4 days it lasted in my house. I used a little less of the caramel sauce on top than the recipe called for, and there was still plenty of caramel taste. Will definitely be making this one again!!!

This cake was excellent. Everyone who had it thought it was from a local (very good) bakery. As another reviewr did, I substituted brown sugar for half of the white, as a matter of personal preference. I also reduced the oil to 1 c for the same reason, and it was very moist and flavorful. Great recipe!

This was good, but didn't get the rave reviews I expected. I decreased the oil to 1 C. and substituted applesauce for the remaining 1/2 C. oil. I also added 2 tsp cinnamon to the batter. Next time I will make it in a 9x13 for convenience sake, use 3/4 C. oil and 3/4 C. applesauce. I'll also decrease the glaze by 1/2 as it was too much and went all over my serving plate.

This is an excellent recipe! EVERYONE loved this, kids and adults. I used 1 cup of sweet almond oil and 1/3 cup vegetable oil. This reduced the oil amount slightly, and it did not turn out greasy as others had mentioned. I omited the nuts. I will definitely be making this again! Great for the fall when apples are on sale1

I tried this recipe with the less oil and it turned out great! The batter was thick, but it baked and was wonderful. My wife enjoyed this recipe and it is one of her favorites now. It was relativly simple to make and great for many occasions. I think that the only thing bad about this cake is that it is not really a coffee cake and more of a regular dessert cake.

Are you really really sure it's 1-1/2 cups of vegetable oil!?!? It came out pretty greasy. 1 cup perhaps? Anyone else has idea? Subsitute with something else to help lessen use of veg oil? It taste good but seems so greasy.

This is probably the best coffee cake that I have ever made. It's so incredibly moist. I made it on a Tuesday and on Thursday it was like I had made it that day. The only thing that I changed was I put in one cup of white sugar and one cup of brown sugar (instead of 2 cups of white) to get more of a caramel flavour. Oh and I added a tsp of cinnamon!
