Tips for the BEST Apple Pie Coffee Cake:

Making an apple pie-filling coffee cake can make a delicious treat for breakfast or dessert. Follow these simple tips to make this delicious dessert that’s sure to please:

1. When adding your wet ingredients to the dry cake mix, make sure to mix it properly and evenly so that each bite of your cake has the same perfect taste and texture with no lumps.
2. You want to make sure that your cake truly has an apple layer by evenly spreading the apples on top of your batter. If you don’t make sure the apples are evenly distributed, then you won’t get that true apple taste in every bite.
3. Bake it until golden brown and check it for doneness with a skewer. You might be tempted to bake the cake for a few extra minutes, but beware that overbaking can dry out the cake so it’s best to err on the side of caution!
4. To serve your cake to perfection, make sure you cut slices when it’s still warm from the oven, and don’t forget to add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra yumminess!

Making ahead, storing, and freezing:

Making this apple-filling coffee cake is one of life’s small joys, and it’s all the better if you have leftovers so you can enjoy them a few days later! While coffee cakes are most delicious warm in the oven, making ahead and storing coffee cakes with apple filling can help you enjoy them for days.

To keep the cake fresh and flavorful, store it in an airtight container either as a whole cake or portioned into slices.

This method will help maintain freshness for up to a week after baking in the fridge or up to three months in the freezer. Let the cake cool completely before storing it in the fridge or freezer.
