Coffee Cake - Gluten-Free & Vegan

Coffee Cake - Gluten-Free & Vegan

This coffee cake is easy, delicious, and perfect for any occasion! Made using our Gluten-Free Vegan Pancake & Waffle Mix, it’s soft, cinnamon-swirled, and topped with a sweet glaze. Let’s get baking! 


Ingredients

For the Cake:

    •    1 bag Mama Alana’s Pantry Gluten-Free Vegan Pancake & Waffle Mix

    •    3 tbsp vegetable shortening, melted

    •    3 tsp vanilla extract

    •    3 tbsp apple cider vinegar

    •    4 tbsp sugar

    •    1 cup milk of your choice (we recommend oat milk)

For the Cinnamon Swirl:

    •    ¾ cup sugar

    •    3 tbsp reserved Pancake & Waffle Mix

    •    6 tsp cinnamon

    •    3 tbsp butter or vegan butter, softened


For the Glaze:

    •    3 cups powdered sugar

    •    1 tsp vanilla extract

    •    Milk of your choice (just enough for desired consistency)


Directions

    1.    Prepare the Baking Mix:

    •    Open the Pancake & Waffle Mix and remove 3 tablespoons of the mix. Set it aside for the cinnamon swirl.

    •    Place the remaining mix in a large bowl. Add melted vegetable shortening, vanilla, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and milk. Mix until smooth and combined.

    2.    Make the Cinnamon Swirl:

    •    In a separate bowl, combine the reserved 3 tablespoons of Pancake & Waffle Mix, sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter. Mix with a fork until crumbly.

    3.    Layer the Coffee Cake:

    •    Grease or butter an 11x9-inch baking pan. Spread just over half of the batter into the pan, smoothing it out.

    •    Sprinkle a layer of the cinnamon mixture over the batter.

    •    Scoop the remaining batter on top, spreading it as best as you can (it’s okay if there are gaps!).

    •    Top with the remaining cinnamon mixture.

    4.    Bake:

    •    Bake at 350°F for 25–30 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out clean.

    5.    Make the Glaze:

    •    While the coffee cake is baking, mix powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk in a bowl until you reach your desired consistency.

    6.    Finish & Serve:

    •    Once the coffee cake is done baking, let it cool for a few minutes. Drizzle the glaze over the top or serve it on the side.


Enjoy this warm, gooey, and cinnamon-packed coffee cake with your favorite coffee or tea! ☕💛
