I made this for a birthday celebration and everyone loved it! I did substitute brown sugar for the streusel as suggested by others. Great recipe, will definitely bake again!

This was a nice recipe. I left out the nuts and made the streusel from half cup brown and half cup granulated sugar, with more cinnamon and 1/4 tsp of nutmeg. Next time I would make more streusel so that the layer of it is more pronounced and add more flavor. I gradually added streusel to the top of the cake as it baked so that the sugar wouldn't burn. This made a really nice crust to the cake. If doing this, may need to increase the cooking time slightly due to the opening of the oven. Let it cool for few hours before cutting. Wouldn't recommend baking this the morning you want to serve it because it won't cut nicely and makes for a sloppy presentation.

I didn't have a Bundt pan, so I made it in two glass pie plates. It turned out wonderful. It was yummy without being overly-sweet.

super simple to make and yummy!!! I substituted apples for the walnuts. My family won't eat it if it has nuts-but apples were a good trade! Awesome recipe thanks!

I followed the recipe exactly except for doubling the streusel amount and the brown sugar suggestions, which I would also strongly recommend, and also by adding some salt, as there is no salt listed in the receipe. I would never make this cake again. It was very heavy and dense. The cake part itself had NO flavor. From my limited baking experience the recipe needs to be reformulated to: include salt somewhere (or some other flavor), add some lightness to the cake and butter for the streusel "topping" which is actually the bottom of the cake. Without using a fat to hold the "topping" together at the bottom of the cake the nuts, sugar and cinnamon combo fell off and was dry. The amount of batter was also too much. The cake rose about 3/4 of an inch above the pan, I thought it was going to spill over....

I didn't like it. It wasn't very sweet and the streusel wasn't a true streusel. I'd add some of the butter into the streusel so that it really sinks into the cake.

This recipe does not specify to melt or soften butter. When I made this with my students, the batter was the consistancy of bread dough. I added milk to thin it out to proper consistancy. Also, the ingredients listed for the streusel mixture, should have had brown sugar instead of white sugar. As with any recipe, read the ingredients & directions thoroughly before preparing the item so you don't waste time & money. Once the 3/4 cup milk was added, the coffee cake came out wonderful.

delicious. i too altered by pouring in 1/3 of the batter, then half the cinnamon sugar, then 1/3 batter and the rest of the cinnamon sugar, then the rest of the batter. i cooked it for about 50-52 minutes. 60 is too long. when i served it i sprinkled some powdered sugar on the top. if you cook it too long, it will come out dry. if you follow the instructions for the sugar connoction as stated, it turns into a mess when served. oh and i use pecans instead. yum. we love this recipe with these few changes...

Everyone who ate this cake said it was very good. I made a small mistake in not putting enough sugar-nut mixture in the middle of the cake. Next time I make this I will put all of the mixture in the middle & make a glaze for the top. More like a cinnamon roll cake, I guess. But this recipe it tops as is.

I took this to a work function and it went over very well. I took the advice of others and used half brown and half white sugar. I also added a glaze to the top. The batter is very thick and there is lots of it. I cooked mine in a 9x13in pan and it came out well.

This was wonderful. I do not own a bundt pan, so I baked this in an 8.5x11. The first time, baked as the recipe stated and it was very good. Next time, I could not find my nuts in my cupboard so, I used a trail kind of mix with cranberries, pecans, walnuts, filberts, and pistachios. I just chopped it up in the food processor and added it to the cinnamon and sugar. Yummy both ways. Thanks!

I made the Streusel Coffee Cake for Christmas. At first, I was a bit worried because the batter was so thick but it turned out perfectly. Moist, sweet and rich...everyone enjoyed it.
