  Coffee cake is one of my favorite brunch items.  There is just something about the combination of that and a strong piping hot cup of coffee.  Best part of coffee cake in my opinion?  That topping!! This Applesauce Coffee Cake has everything I love — moist spiced cake, and a delicious crunchy topping! Check out my cinnamon applesauce recipe too if you want to go fully from scratch…
