COFFEE CAKE
This is a recipe that came from my Mom's index cards. I have made this recipe SO many times!! I love this recipe!! This recipe calls for the cranberry's to spread over the top just before baking. When I was helping my Mom making it, and I accidentally added the cranberry's in with the coffee cake and mixed it all up. My Mom was furious and chewed me out. She went ahead and made it then profusely apologized to me, since it was 10 times better the way I made it then the way she made it!!! One of the high lights of my childhood! You can use pretty much any fruit that you would like. You may need to adjust the cooking time according to how 'wet' the fruit is. You can also substitute the fruit juice for the water for more fruit flavor.

Tips:
- For a moist and fluffy coffee cake, use cake flour instead of all-purpose flour. Cake flour has a lower protein content, which results in a more tender crumb.
- To ensure that the cranberries are evenly distributed throughout the batter, toss them with a little bit of flour before adding them to the batter.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense coffee cake.
- For a streusel topping that is extra crunchy, use a mixture of brown sugar and granulated sugar.
- To prevent the streusel topping from burning, bake the coffee cake in a preheated oven and watch it carefully towards the end of the baking time.
Conclusion:
This cranberry coffee cake is a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and fluffy crumb, tangy cranberries, and crunchy streusel topping, this coffee cake is sure to be a hit.
