This gluten free coffee cake is so easy to make and is also dairy free. Topped with an apple pie filling layer and a dairy free, gluten free streusel topping.

Gluten Free Coffee Cake

A lot of coffee cake recipes out there are full of yummy things like sour cream or yogurt and of course butter and flour. This one knocks them out of the water and doesn't have any of that. It's soft, moist (yes moist- deal), so delicious, and I mean- topped with apple pie? Does it get any better?

This coffee cake is made with Bob Red Mill's 1-1 gluten free flour blend and a little coconut flour for the perfect crumb and density. Some almond milk and apple cider vinegar together make this cake so full of flavor and replace the sour cream that a lot of good coffee cakes have.

There are 3 layers, all gluten free and dairy free, in this cake. Layer number 1 is a warm cinnamon cake. Layer number 2 is a delicious and easy apple pie filling. And the final layer is a brown sugar and molasses streusel topping. SO GOOD RIGHT?

Apple Pie Coffee Cake

Making this for a weekend brunch or cozy breakfast is the best idea and honestly you should be whipping this up this weekend right after apple picking.

The first layer of this cake is the cinnamon cake layer. Combine the gluten free flour, baking soda, baking powder, coconut flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Blend it all together well with a whisk so there are no lumps. In separate large mixing bowl, combine the almond milk, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, eggs, and vanilla.

Once you've done this, start to add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients to form the batter. In a cake pan, greased and lined with parchment paper, pour the batter in and set aside while you make your apple pie layer.

I used red delicious for this recipe and it turned out super well! Slice up about 4-5 apples into thin slices. In a bowl add your lemon juice, brown sugar, coconut flour, and apple pie spices. Evenly place the apples over the top of the batter. Lastly the brown sugar and molasses streusel.

This streusel is not traditional because it has no butter (I know, sad day) but instead has a little molasses which honestly adds a really amazing flavor punch. Sprinkle it over the top evenly and pop this apple pie coffee cake in to bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes. Enjoy!
