Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Cake

(8 servings)    Printable Version
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups + 3 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup butter or margarine
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3 Tablespoons cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In a small bowl or cup, mix 3 Tablespoons of sugar with the 3 Tablespoons of cinnamon. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream the butter (or margarine) with the 2 cups of sugar. Add the eggs, milk and vanilla stir until well combined.

In a separate large bowl, mix together the flour, baking, powder, baking soda and salt.

Add the dry ingredients to the the wet ingredients and stir until well combined.

Pour half of the batter into an angel food pan. Top with 1/2 of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Using a regular table knife, swirl the cinnamon/sugar into the batter. Top with remaining batter. Swirl in the remaining cinnamon/sugar.

Bake for 60 minutes.

Serve warm with a touch of butter.


Looks as good as it smells. Tastes as good as it looks! Use an angel food pan for best results.

I didn't have an angel food pan, so I used a square (maybe 8 x 8) glass baking pan. I had some batter left over, so I made about 4 muffins with the extra. Both the muffins and the coffee cake turned out GREAT - but I have to say I may have like the muffins even a little bit more (they were slightly more moist for some reason). Thanks! - Paula

I made it in a regular small loaf pan (don't have the kind of pan you specify) and it worked out fine. Warm it up in the microwave for just 10 seconds and spread a little butter on top. Delicious!
