    This was so easy and is going in my "go-to recipe" binder. It uses only kitchen staples and can be thrown together at the last minute. The cake was very moist and balanced well with the streusel topping. I did make a few changes that others suggested.
    *used butter rather than vegetable shortening
    *used brown sugar rather than white in the streusel topping
    *added a dash of nutmeg to the topping
    *baked at 350F for about 40 minutes instead of 400F
    **Might add nuts to the streusel topping next time around

    This was delicious! And even better the next day. I did use supremebaker's suggestions on substitutions & baking temp (see previous review. I also used dark brown sugar instead of light and added 1 tsp of vanilla. The apples were off of our tree, so they were super-fresh. This recipe will be a family favorite for sure.

    As written I would only give this coffee cake recipe 3 stars, but with a little tweaking I brought it up to a 5 star level! The changes I made were substituting butter for the shortening, adding an additional cup of finely chopped apple (for a total of 2 1/2 cups, and substituting light brown sugar for the granulated sugar in the streusal topping. The brown sugar gives more depth of flavor to the streusal along with a heartier texture and a warm butteriness. I also baked this at 375 for 25 minutes as 400 made the topping brown too quickly. This is NOW my go to recipe for apple coffee cake!

    I have made this cake 3 times now, and the 2nd & 3rd time I put 1/2 the batter then took roughly 1/4 of the streusel and sprinkled it to cover then added the rest of the batter and topped with remaining streusel. Got raves.
