Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ self-rising flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup milk
1 egg, beaten
3 cups sliced fresh plums, peaches, apples or pears
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted

Steps:

Heat oven to 375°F. Grease 13x9-inch pan with shortening or cooking spray. In large bowl, mix flour and 1/2 cup sugar. Cut in 1/2 cup butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk and egg; stir just until blended. Spread batter evenly in pan.

Tips:

Use fresh or frozen fruit: Fresh fruit gives the coffee cake the best flavor, but frozen fruit can also be used. If using frozen fruit, thaw it completely before adding it to the batter.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the coffee cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Use a bundt pan or loaf pan: A bundt pan or loaf pan is the best pan to use for baking coffee cake. A 9x13 inch pan can also be used, but the coffee cake will be thinner.
Bake the coffee cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to tell if the coffee cake is done baking.
Let the coffee cake cool before serving: This will help the coffee cake to hold its shape and make it easier to slice.

Fruit coffee cake is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch treat. With its moist crumb, sweet glaze, and abundance of fresh fruit, it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
