Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake is made with a brown sugar swirl and a crunchy streusel topping. Great for breakfast or brunch, surprise your guests at your next gathering or party.

I have made many, many coffee cakes in my day, but this Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake certainly looked the nicest, presentation wise. It also tasted quite good.
We like a good coffee cake around here. Brown Sugar Coffee Cake is always a favorite as is Blueberry Coffee Cake.
This coffee cake was made in an angel food cake pan. I think that added to the presentation. It baked perfectly and evenly and the cinnamon/flour mixture was simple, yet flavorful. It makes plenty so a one time bake would cover a lot of guests. So important in my recipe book.
This coffee cake is full of cinnamon and crunch, flavor and yum. It may look complicated, but it is not.
