Print Recipe

Gluten-Free Soy-Free Peanut-Free

A fan favorite recipe! Delicious coffee cake, perfect for brunch or entertaining anytime.

Ingredients
    FOR THE FILLING
    • 1 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped to medium pieces
    • ¼ cup granulated sugar
    • ¼ cup light brown sugar
    • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    • ½ cup currants or raisins, soaked in cup of hot water to plump, then drained (optional)
    FOR THE CAKE BATTER
    FOR VANILLA GLAZE
    • 1 cup powdered sugar
    • 2 to 3 tablespoons water
    • ¾ teaspoon vanilla
    FOR LEMON OR ORANGE GLAZE
    • 1 cup powdered sugar
    • 2 tablespoons softened butter
    • 2 tablespoons orange juice, lemon juice or water (add more water if too thick to pour)
    • pinch of salt
    • zest of 1 orange or lemon
Directions

    Preheat oven to 350°. Grease 10-cup Bundt or 9-inch springform pan.

    Mix together filling ingredients in a small bowl; set aside. To make cake batter, soften butter in the bowl of an electric stand mixer with paddle attachment. Add sugar and mix well. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla. On low speed, alternately add baking mix and then sour cream until incorporated.

    Spoon half of batter into pan, covering the bottom. Sprinkle half of the filling over batter evenly, repeat with layer of batter, then sprinkle remaining filling evenly over batter. Take a knife and insert straight down into batter moving up and down around the pan in a zig zag motion to marbleize cake. Do not smooth out the batter.

    Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. While warm, run a knife around the edges. When cool remove from pan.

    TO GLAZE THE CAKE: Mix together glaze ingredients until smooth. Add more water if needed for pourable consistency. Pour thin stream of glaze back and forth over cake.

    NOTE: Everyone measures out cups of flour differently. If you find that your results vary from ours, try adjusting the amount of our flours. For example, if your cake falls a little in the middle, thicken the batter by adding more of the baking mix next time. If cake is too dense and heavy, try reducing the amount of baking mix by ½ cup.

If I make this coffee cake the day before, does it have to be refrigerated?

    • Hi Melody, You could just wrap it air-tight.

This was a total failure. Used a bunt pan and only the edges and middle around the cone baked. The rest sank into a soggy mess. I was so disappointed!

I made this coffee cake for work for those who are gluten free and then regular coffee cake for everyone else. Everyone want to eat this coffee cake instead so I had none of it to take home. The regular cake was barely eaten. It was a big hit. Thank you for the recipe!!!!

I made just the base and covered it with my own streusel. I cut the recipe in half for my small family, used light sour cream and 1/4 cup butter (instead of 1/3 cup). It was still rich and delicious. Only thing that's not perfect, it looks a little collapsed in the center of the 6 x 6 inch pan. Next time, I'll try cream cheese as Janis O suggested.

Such a dream come true for someone who misses old-fashioned baked goods and has had to cut our gluten.

This is the most delicious sour cream coffee cake. I make it for my office mates all the time and it is a major morale boost!! I use the bundt pan and find that I use a plastic knife to loosen the cake from the pan while it is still hot.

Made this with a few changes and it was excellent. I substituted 3 tablespoons of coconut oil for butter and added 2 teaspoons of vanilla instead of just 1. For the filling I grated an apple to go along with the nuts and craisiins. I also used half stevia to cut down on sugar. It tasted great, very moist!

I made this before with the lemon glaze, it is FANTASTIC! It involved a lot of effort for a not so chefy person like myself, but the result was sooo worth it. I cannot wait to make (and especially eat) this again.

Great recipe! Recently served this at a semi-formal Christmas dinner with friends. They raved about it and wanted more, even after a big meal. Baked it in a fancy-fluted bundt pan. Sprinkled in some of the topping/filling first (after spraying it with butter-flavored non-stick) then tilted and shook the pan to line it with a fine layer of the filling--similar to coating a pan with flour. Really set up a fabulous look once baked and the glaze was drizzled on. By the way, no one knew it was gluten-free.
