Pumpkin Coffee Cake

DSC_6831

My husband likes to have sweet things for breakfast when he’s home. When he’s on the road he doesn’t have time to seek out allergen friendly diners for breakfast. Evidently daily breakfasts of hotel powdered eggs and unknown origin sausage during his work week arent very fulfilling. Probably in fact, gross. I think I would settle for an apple.

I’m a fan of simple these days. Coffee cake is an easy and filling breakfast (I also served it with a side of organic bacon), and can be made a gazillion different ways. This time I chose pumpkin because it’s that time of year. I also chose to make it really easy, but if you want a more complicated, Martha Stewart type of coffee cake that is also delicious, you can go here.

  1. If I use Bob Red Mill’s or King Arther GF All Purpose flour mix, do I need to add anything else?

    • I think the bob’s may give you too dense of a texture. I usually only use it for banana bread because it adds moisture…and the bananas hide the beamy flavor I don’t care for. I wouldn’t think you would need to add anything else to the King Arthur flour. I didn’t add xanthum gum to this recipe and it turned out great. 🙂 Let me know!
