This week we are revisiting pumpkin spice everything, you know because it's October and it's the seasonal law. Just kidding, but pumpkin spice is everywhere and for good reason, you can make so much from the puree. This cool weather also makes coffee more popular too, so I'm pairing the two in a coffee cake. After a google search on coffee cakes, I learned there are over 2.4 billion results. Germany was the first country to serve coffee with a sponge-like cake, later becoming the popular traditional cinnamon-flavored coffee cakes in the United States. So, I set out to find a pumpkin coffee cake that would be perfect for any time of the day. This recipe is easy, it freezes well and won't last long. Oddly enough, very few coffee cake recipes included coffee in the ingredients, I may have to look further into that, sounds like a perfect pair to me. Happy baking.
