A simple apple coffee cake made from a biscuit-style baking mix, applesauce and sliced apples, finished with a crumbly brown sugar streusel. Bake it in a 9x9-inch pan and cut into 8 squares.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Bisquick mix
  • 2/3 cup chunky applesauce
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine softened or melted
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • 2 cooking apples peeled, cored, and sliced thinly

Streusel topping

  • 1/4 cup biscuit mix
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine firm
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

  • Heat the oven to 375°F and lightly grease a 9x9-inch pan.
  • Stir the biscuit mix, applesauce, milk, sugar, butter, cinnamon, vanilla, and egg together just until combined.
  • Pour the batter into the pan and smooth the top.
  • Weave the thin apple slices into the batter.
  • Chop a small handful of the extra apple slices, toss them with a little cinnamon and sugar, and sprinkle them on top.
  • Work the streusel ingredients together with a fork or pastry blender until they look crumbly.
  • Scatter the streusel evenly across the batter.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
  • Let it cool a bit before cutting.

Notes

Cool completely and cover tightly; up to 2 days at room temperature or 4 days refrigerated. Wrap pieces and freeze up to 2 months. Dry mix components keep airtight in a cool, dry place about 3 months.
