How To Make Apple Spice Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Cake

For Cake: Sift together all the dry ingredients several times cake and muffin mix, instant coffee, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

In stand mixer, using paddle, starting on slow speed blend dry ingredients with eggs (one at a time).

Add yogurt, milk, oil. Blend on medium speed for 2-3 minutes.

Add apples and nuts. Blend a few more minutes until all ingredients are incorporated scraping the sides often.

CINNAMON SWIRL (best to do this after batter has been mixed as it only takes a minute). Melt butter. Add sugars and cinnamon. If mixture is too thick add a few teaspoons of milk until the consistency of gravy.

Pour your batters in prepared pans. For this one I used 6 mini loaf pans, filling to about 3/4 full.Test Kitchen Note: We used a 913 pan.

Dollop cinnamon swirl onto the batter 2 tablespoons at a time.

With a knife, gently swirl the cinnamon through being careful not to touch the bottom.
NOTE: I learned the hard way, it sticks to the bottom and cake is difficult to get out.

BAKE @ 350 for how however many minutes, depending on size pan. For the mini loaf pans, it took 30-33 minutes. It also depends on your oven.Test Kitchen Note: It took 40 minutes for our 913 pan.

If you want an icing, with a mix whisk 3 tbsp of powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp vanilla and 1-2 tbsp of almond milk.

Drizzle or spread over cooled cakes.

Notes
Mary says to use what pan youd like. We opted for a 913 pan and baked it for about 40 minutes.
