Ingredients

1 box betty crocker gingerbread cake and cookie mix

2 Tbsp butter, softened
1/2 c packed brown sugar
1/3 c all purpose flour
1 tsp ground cinnamon
dash(es) salt

Steps:

1. In a large bowl, combine gingerbread mix, water, egg, and diced apples. Spoon into a 9-inch square pan which has been sprayed with cooking spray.

3. Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Serve warm or cold with a spoonful of whipped cream. May also garnish with a fresh orange slice.

Tips:

For the streusel topping, use cold butter. This will help keep the streusel crumbly and prevent it from melting into the batter.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to a cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
To make sure your coffee cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
This coffee cake is best served warm with a cup of coffee or tea.
