The menu for the Bridal Breakfast that I catered included my Blueberry Crumb Coffee Cake, Brown Sugar Streusel Coffee Cake, Strata’s, Fruit Salad, juices, coffee, and Champagne.
This is a wonderful coffee cake, the recipe is from my friend Debi from Recipes for My Boys. When I saw the cake I knew that it would be perfect for the bridal breakfast, such a delicious moist coffee cake.
It was so fun to see the photographer take so many pictures of my cakes and strata’s. I can’t wait to see how the pictures came out.

Nettie, this looks amazing!! I bet there wasn’t one crumb left. I know I probably would have had 2 slices 😉
Thank you Loo Hoo! Yes it disappeared quickly, I am with you, I would have had a least 2 slices <3 Nettie
I’ve been looking for a new coffee cake recipe. Can’t wait to try this. I’m thinking I’ll be adding some finely chopped apple to the batter.
That sounds great too Bitsybet. Nettie
I so love this cake and could almost eat a whole one myself. You make it look yummy yummy and yummy. Come on over and I’ll put the kettle on xoxo
Sounds like a great plan Beverley! Thank you! Nettie
I’m in the middle of an epic battle here. I want to rush in the kitchen and make this (and the blueberry crumb coffee cake) but it’s just me at home alone for a few days, and I know exactly what would happen! Must.Wait.For.Menfolk.
Hope your men get back ASAP!! <3 Nettie
Found your blog via the linkup & I am so glad I did! Your site is lovely & I am now following. All these cake recipes look amazing – where should I start?!
Thank you Hungry Mum! So happy you stopped by, hope you enjoy the streusel coffee cake <3 Nettie
Netti, every one of your cakes looks scrumptious. I wish I baked, but then I’d have to eat them all. But sooo happy to have you share them at #theWeekendSocial. Hope to see you back Thursday 9:00 PM EST. Pinned!
Thank you KC, wish you could come over for a slice and coffee <3 Nettie
Love this wonderful recipe, Nettie! Your Brown Sugar Streusel Coffee Cake looks absolutely delectable! Love the other cakes too. I’m glad the Bridal Breakfast went so well – and that the wedding was lovely too! Thank you for sharing this tasty recipe with us at the Hearth and Soul hop.

Thank you Joy! Nettie
Thanks for this great selection of coffee cake recipes. I love making them for weekend breakfasts. They all sound delicious.
Thank you for visiting us John! Nettie
Wow! Your brown sugar streusel coffee cake looks so delicious. I’m sure my mom and dad who love coffee in all of its form will love this. I’m planning to surprise them with your coffee cake when I visit them this weekend. Thank you very much for sharing this lovely recipe!
Thank you Claire, it is a fantastic recipe, all coffee cake lovers agree! Nettie
Sounds delicious! A great weekend treat!
Thank you Angela! Nettie
I made this today and was so happy! It looked great until 15 minutes later to flip over. I guess I didn’t bake long enough and it fell. I tested with a toothpick and it came out clean. It was yummy and and Im sure it would have been great if I cooked it longer. Make sure it is done…maybe 60 mins. Otherwise; it is an excellent recipe!
Hi. Found your recipe via Pinterest. The cake is in the oven now. Looks delicious. Plan to share with my quilting guild tonight. I may try the blueberry coffe cake sometime too. Does this cake freeze well?
Hi Laura,
So excited that you are making it as I type this! This cake usually disappears so quickly that I haven’t had the chance to freeze it. But if you would like to freeze it, just wait until it cools off completely, wrap really well in saran wrap, then wrap well in foil. It should be okay for up to a week in the freezer. Nettie
It seems delicious!!!
Goodness me… this is one fabulous recipe ♥
I am a lover of coffee cakes and the streusel is my very favorite. I also love Maine and am sure it made for a beautiful wedding!
Love old fashioned coffee cakes. I think it’s the topping that always gets me! Perfect!
I’ve made this cake a few times and I always get great reviews!! Really easy and sooooo delicious!! I always add Heath Toffee bits to the brown sugar crumble for some extra sweetness and crunch!!
I first had this coffee cake from a birthday breakfast at work… incredible! It is the best coffee cake I’ve ever had! The person who originally made it at work had accidentally substituted almond extract for the vanilla extract and it was also very delicious. Thank you again!!
looks great, thank you for sharing
