Cinnamon Apple Crumb Cake

Are you ready for fall baking? Cinnamon Apple Crumb Cake is the perfect dessert for crisp weather coming up, just like this Caramel Apple Cinnamon Roll Lasagna. But, if you are not a big fan of pumpkin treat, then you must try this coffee cake loaded with apples and crunchy brown sugar-cinnamon streusel crumbs, drizzled with apple cider glaze.

Are you ready for fall baking? Cinnamon Apple Crumb Cake is the perfect dessert for crisp weather coming up.

Being a food blogger is not such a simple thing as many of my friends think it is. This time I’m not talking about the usual problems that happen in the kitchen like an unsuccessful frosting of a perfectly backed cupcake or the filling is thin for the 1000. time even though you did everything by the book.

But I’m talking about is the reputation that doesn’t allow you any mistakes. And my friends, sitting with a dessert, usually say “Oh, Vera, this is simply fantastic! And you always succeed in everything you try. But I could never do that, and so it’s better that I come to your place for a sweet bite like this”

Are you ready for fall baking? Cinnamon Apple Crumb Cake is the perfect dessert for crisp weather coming up.

A few days ago, answering the phone, I heard my best friend: “Vera, when do you have time for me? I have something very important to tell you! I’ll be there in a few hours. And please, make one of your sweet desserts so we could eat something sweet while talking”. And – click, that was it.

If I had the phone number, I would surely have called Superman because I knew what was coming to me! First, searching on Pinterest. Cheesecake, Cupcakes, Cookies?Nooo, maybe this quick Poke Cake? Hmmm these Apple Muffins look fantastic, too. After an “easy” 45 minutes, the decision was made – Cinnamon Apple Crumb Cake!

Are you ready for fall baking? Cinnamon Apple Crumb Cake is the perfect dessert for crisp weather coming up.

And even though it all looks so simple, there are a few completely logical questions: “Have I used all the apples on Apple Cookies?”. Of course, then I had to spend 30 minutes in the shop for buying a few apples. After two hours, luckily without any new problems, Apple Crumb Cake began to spread it’s smell through my home, and I remembered my blog.

Well, it wouldn’t be bad to make a photo of this beautiful coffee cake. And of course, as is common in situations like this, the display was showing the (in)famous message “Change the battery”. 30 more minutes for charging the battery and as soon as the photo session was over, I got the SMS “I’m coming in 20 minutes”. Just enough for washing the dishes, too.

And so, 30 minutes later, talking about the newest gossip and enjoying the Cinnamon Apple Crumb Cake, came the usual “Vera, you really are a genius. Only you can make such a sweet cake without any problems. You have to give me the secret one day”.

“Well, it’s really nothing, my dear. You can do it. All you need is a little good will and things are done by themselves!” 🙂

This recipe is delicious! I had a bit of a hard time spreading the 1/2 cake batter over top of the apples & streusel, so I whipped up another 1/2 batch of batter. Coverage was much better for me, and I only had to add an additional 5 minutes of baking time. So, so good!

Don’t be put off by the scant amount of dough and the problematic spreading of the top layer of batter. It works out and bakes up perfectly in the end. An excellent coffee cake … not a bite left!

I had to bake for an extra 35 minutes… It’s still too hot to take out of the spring form yet, so I won’t know how evenly it’s cooked for a couple of hours. I think it’s just that I’m at a higher elevation though… ??? for it though! It still smells AMAZING!

I’ve recently come across this delicious looking recipe. So excited to make it. My question is. I don’t not have a 8 inch springform pan. I have 9 inch springform pans. But I was wondering. Can this recipe be doubled for a 13 x 9 baking pan?

Hi Crystal, I think you should add more, at least 1/4 more for the cake batter,or you won’t have enough to spread in the bottom of the pan, it’s very thin layer even for 8-inch pan.

I made this cake in a 9 inch springform pan. Instead of layering I put cake batter first then apples next and topped with crumb mixture. Baked 35 min, came out perfect. Topped with a salted caramel glaze! So delicious!!

Heather November 19, 2015 - 3:26 am

This is currently in the oven 🙂 can’t wait to see how it turns out! One question: has anyone tried making this with twice as much cake batter? It was fairly difficult to spread the bottom layer of batter as well as the middle layer, and I think doubling the amount of batter might just do the trick.

Reply
Jennifer February 24, 2016 - 3:27 am

I just had the same issue. I doubled the batter and it’s going 20 minutes past the bake time now; probably needs additional time, too.

Reply
Sara November 8, 2016 - 4:26 pm

When it came to spreading the batter; yes it was a very small amount, and I too was worried it wouldn’t spread very well. I used a rubber spatula and sprayed it with nonstick cooking spray. It made spreading the batter very easy. The cake is currently in the oven-hoping it turns out! 🙂

Reply
Emily November 18, 2019 - 10:54 pm

I ended up doubling the batter. I put 1/2 of the original amount into the pan and it just didn’t seem right, so I put the whole amount in. The batter was very thick, almost too dry. I quickly made a second batch of the batter for the top. It didn’t take too much longer – about another 10-15 minutes. Despite the sour cream, the cake seemed dry.

Reply
Amber November 28, 2019 - 3:25 pm

I agree, it was very sticky and hard to spread also. Hoping it still turns out well!

Reply
Patricia June 18, 2021 - 4:00 pm

I agree, however for me I nearly always end up adding more liquid to coffee cake recipes and they come out perfect. I suppose it could be that I live a mile high (not Denver but I grew up there so I’m accustomed to altitude). Coffee cake batters almost always seem too thick to me so I add extra of whatever liquid is called for in the recipe. I did it with this recipe and it turned out perfectly. I’m making it tonight for a meeting tomorrow morning and I’m thinking about doubling all the ingredients and cooking it in a nine inch spring form pan. That will give me leftovers for next week.

Reply
Brianna November 26, 2015 - 2:42 pm

I just assembled this and also found it very difficult to spread the batter (both the bottom and top.) Actually the top was harder since it was over the crumbs. I’m sure it will come out fine, but if it is a hit I am going to try to double the batter next time. Thanks 🙂

Reply
Karen Ferguson July 11, 2017 - 5:14 am

I found the same…Very hard to spread. The cake tasted great but was very thin. Is that the way it’s suppose to be. I thought it would be higher adding the baking pwd. but it wasn’t.

Reply
Helen October 27, 2018 - 8:28 pm

If you keep dipping your knife in a cup of hot water it will be easier to spread.

Britney February 18, 2016 - 7:57 am

This was the best cake in the world! The only things I added was I used 2 large apples (an apple per layer, because I can’t get enough apples!) and I made this cinnamon brown sugar glaze thing by melting 4 tbs of butter and adding the brown sugar and cinnamon to my liking. I just spread this mixture on top of the batter for each layer before adding the apples and crumbs. I found that this helped with spreading the top layer. Also, I added about 1/4-1/2 a cup of buttermilk because I thought my batter looked a bit dry.

This cake was amazing! I took the advice of someone below who said to put more apples (almost one on each layer) and a cinnamon, Sugar, and butter drizzle on each layer (4T butter, 1/3 cup brown sugar, and 1/2 t cinnamon), and double the batter or it won’t be enough to spread. I actually tripled the recipe for a 9×13 pan. It makes a big cake but that’s how we like it at my house. It cooked for almost an hour and a half. Amazing! Make this cake!

Emma, you are going to have to make adjustments to your baking. Here is a link to an article on adjustments on the King Arthur flour site https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/learn/resources/high-altitude-baking . I’ve always lived at altitude and use this site constantly. You also probably want to use extra liquid to keep it from being too dry.

Ashley May 7, 2016 - 9:45 am

This cake is amazing!! It’s super moist, light and soft, I’m in love! I used greek yogurt instead of sour cream and used self raising flour, it came out perfect. For people who are unsure about whether to double the recipe or not, you can increase the baking powder to 2 tablespoons. It may look thin in the pan, but it will rise to the perfect height. Thank you for this recipe, I’ll definitely be coming back to this 🙂

Hi!

Thanks for the recipe! I made the cake yesterday in a 9 inch pan and baked 20 minutes overtime, and still the middle wasn’t completely set. I made it with 1 apple and 1 pear, but would also suggest using at least double the amount of fruits, because the batter is quite thick.

Hi Stephanie, I thing you could use it. About the parchment paper, when you take off the ring from springform pan just lift a little one edge of the cake and pull down the paper, it will peel off easily and the cake is very dense so it won’t pull apart while you do that.

I only had a 9 inch springform and substituted milk when I had no apple cider, but it was still great. I will get cider next time, because I will definitely make this again!

I’ve been so excited to make this and have a fresh bag of apples I picked with my boys over the weekend. Just pulled out the springform and it’s 10″, not 8″. It’ll need more batter, I’m sure… Do you think I should double or triple the batter?

Michelle September 20, 2016 - 3:29 pm

I made this last night and it was a hit! I actually used a 9 Inch springform pan and it worked fine. The layer on the bottom was thin but everyone thought it was great. Didn’t even think to measure the pan. The batter was thick but I spread it with a knife and did great. Can’t wait to make again. Thanks!

Nice cake! I really enjoyed making it. Since I’m Swedish I had to translate the recipe and its measures in order to follow it. So if anyone is interested, here is a Swedish translation:

Kanelströsselsmulor
3 on halv dl mjöl
1.20 dl granulerat socker
Halv tesked salt
1 tesked kanel
En fjärdedels tesked muskot
1.20 dl smör
halv tesked vanilj

För kakan
4 matskedar smör
1 stort äpple skalat och skuret
1.20 dl granulerat socker
1 stort ägg
1 tesked vanilj
1.20 dl gräddfil
2.37 dl mjöl
1 fjärdedels tesked bikarbonat
1 fjärdedels tesked salt
en halv tesked bakpulver

Äppelciderglasyr
1.20 dl florsocker
2 matskedar äppelcider

Förfarande
1. Värm ugnen till 176 grader. Smörj den löstagbara kanten på en 20 cm bred form och spänn fast ett smörpapper på botten.
2. För strösselsmulet: blanda ihop de torra ingredienserna först, lägg sedan i det smälta smöret och vaniljsockret och blanda tills blandningen är jämnt fuktig.
3. För kakan: vräk samman smör och och socker luftigt, tillägg ägg och vispa, därefter vaniljsocker och gräddfil och vispa igen.
4. I en annan skål, vräk samman 2,5 dl mjöl, bikarbonat, salt och bakpulver och lägg i smörblandningen, blanda tills det är jämnt blandat.
5. Bred ut halva smeten över formens botten (det blir ett tunt lager). Fördela äppelbitarna jämnt över smeten, strössla därefter 2.5 dl av kanelströsselsmulet över äpplena. Bred slutligen ut den återstående smeten över strösslet och ovanpå denna sista smet, krön verket med kvarstoden strösselsmul.
6. Skjutsa in i ugnen 35-40 minuter, eller testa med en sticka och se om den är ren.
7. Innan du befriar kakan från formen, för en vass kniv längs kanten.
8. Vispa samman äppelcider och florsocker för att skapa glasyren, vilken du sedan låter rinna över den ångande kakan.

Jen October 30, 2016 - 2:20 pm

I’ve made this twice now, and it was perfect both times! The first time I did it in a 9 inch springform pan. I had to bake it 45-50 minutes until it felt done in the center. The second time I doubled the recipe and made it in a 9×13 pan, and didn’t line with parchment paper. It was a lot easier to spread the first layer of batter, and it didn’t stick at all. It took about an hour to bake in the 9×13 pan. I also used a bit more apple the second time, and put some on the top layer as well. This is a serious crowd pleaser! Thank you for this delicious recipe!

Its Thanksgiving morning and I have this in the oven now. All the individual parts taste amazing, so I am sure it will be scrumptious! Next time though, I would double the cake batter, it was tough to spread such a small amount on the pan, and even tougher to spread the top layer though. But I followed the recipe to a T. Can’t wait to try it!!

I had to bring something to my first Thanksgiving dinner with my in-laws. We got married in April and I’ve only met these people twice. You can imagine my fear. You don’t take store bought to your mother-in-laws house. I found this cake and I fell in love!! It looked fantastic!! (And simple…) I thought I would surely have enough time to make a trial cake before he big day. Did I mention that I’m due to have a baby next week? And I have two at home. So, needless to say, time got away from me, and I was baking this cake for the first time Thanksgiving morning praying for the best. I get us and the cake very carefully to my mother-in-laws house. It was fantastic!!!!! Shew!!!! What a relief!!! She even texted me the next day thanking me for bringing the cake!!! You saved my Thanksgiving!! And possibly my future with my mother-in-law. 🙂

Very delicious recipe! As many have commented, the batter is very thick and challenging to spread. On my second try, I made a few changes: I increased all the ingredients by 50% and baked in a 9″ spring form at 350 on the middle rack for 60 minutes and it came out perfect. With the additional batter, spreading was much easier. I’d suggest at least 50% of the batter at the bottom and don’t forget the parchment paper as it helps reduce burning of the bottom. Thanks very much Vera!

I will be attempting this damn recipe for the third time today. First time I dropped the pan right as it was about to go in the oven. Second time, I didn’t have enough batter for the top layer. This time I am tripling the batter, and its going to work or I am shoving myself down the garbage disposal!

Reply
Pete March 8, 2018 - 11:28 pm

Third time was a charm! I used a 9 inch springform pan, and tripled the batter (though I did not use all of it). I had to bake it about an hour and fifteen minutes (I’m high altitude though, and did not adjust the temperature, so YMMV). Thanks for the recipe!

Reply
Barbara March 9, 2018 - 4:57 pm

This was delicious! Followed the recipe exactly and didn’t have any issues with the amount of batter. I used a small offset spatula and put the batter on in spoonfuls all over the pan which makes it easier to spread. Will make3 this again and again.

Hello. I was wondering if you could answer a few questions I have about this recipie.

Do you have any expirience cooking this cake in a convection oven? Mine doesn’t have an option to turn the fan off and I wantes to know how it would effect the cooking temperature and time.
Also for how many days does this cake stay fresh if kept in refrigerator?
Lastly, if I’d want to serve this cake hot but at the same time make it ahead of time what would be the best temeperature and time to reheat it at?

Reply
Vera Z. December 7, 2018 - 12:56 pm

Hi Laura, i think you should preheat the oven to 350 F, and reduce the temp to 325 F when place the cake in the oven. Start checking if it’s done after 28-30 minutes. Maybe you’ll need to tent the top with aluminum foil if it starts browning too much. Prepare the cake trough step 6. Cool completely, cover the cake tightly and refrigerate for up to 2 days or freeze up to 3 months. Bring the cake to room temperature, add glaze and serve.
I haven’t tried to reheat it. Maybe you could reheat it at 210-220 F maximum, wrapped in aluminum foil, for about 20 minutes,but I’m not completely sure about this.

Any time a recipe calls for flour – PLUS baking soda, baking powder and salt, that means use plain flour.
Self-rising already has these additives.

I’ve made this cake 4 times now and everyone loves it! The first time I didnt have a fresh apple handy so substituted unsweetened applesauce. Turned out great! The last two times I’ve baked it in a 9 muffin tin (larger than cupcakes) using cupcake liners. Worked perfectly and gives us one more serving than my spring form pan.

I subbed vegan butter and vanilla Greek yogurt and it’s just so rich and moist and soft! I can’t even describe it! I also used vanilla almond milk instead of apple cider vinegar.

In another bowl, stir together 1 cup flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder and add to the butter mixture, stir until just combined.
It does not have these items listed or the amount to use. This really needs to be fixed for who ever is making this.

Ok, here’s the deal. I read most of the comments. I decided to bake the exact recipe and see how it went.
Was the dough too thick to spread? Yes. I didn’t spread it to the edges, expecting it to expand while cooking.
Should the dough be doubled? Yes. I will do this next time. The finished cake was only 1” tall, and it could have used more cake.
Was it amazing? Absolutely.
The crumble was perfect, and the apples were a great addition to normal coffee cake. This cake is going in my keep file for sure.
Thanks for the great recipe!

I’ve pined your recipe on my pinterest board and pinterest removed it because they received a copyright complaint. I’ve repined it (and some more recipes) from your pinterest board; i hope they let me keep it this time.

Just made this and it came out delicious, I didn’t make the drizzle on here I made my own cream cheese drizzle, and added extra apples to the first and second layer! Although it took longer to bake than recommend it took me about 1hr 15 mins. Either than that I would absolutely recommend this tasty recipe!

This was absolutely delicious!!! My husband and I really enjoyed it and I will be making it again in the near future. I too thought the batter was thick and hard to spread, especially over the crumb mixture, but it worked out

Hi Vera, I just made your Apple Cinnamon Crumb Cake and it tastes lovely. Not sure why my drizzle disappeared into the cake. It’s hardly noticeable. What did I do wrong? Would love to show you a photo of it but not sure how to post it.

Hi,
add more powdered sugar next time to make a thicker glaze.

Vera,
It looks like I never reported what a hit this coffee cake was with my Sunday School class. This coffee cake is absolutely AMAZING! I make A LOT of coffee cakes and this is now my favorite! I had some apples that needed to be used so I decided to give this a try. MAN!!!!!! It is delicious! I believe it may become my “go to” coffee cake. And I can see myself substituting blueberries with lemon , cranberries with orange…

This recipe takes far more than 40 minutes baking time if you are using juicy apples. Otherwise, it’s a good recipe and not particularly hard to make. The streusel is especially good.

This recipe is just perfect for the fall season. I did use 1/2 cup milk instead of sour cream and doubled the cake mix recipe as I was using a bigger dish and many comments suggested it. The doubled cake mix was a perfect amount especially for the top layer that’s hard to spread over the crumbs I just plopped spots on the top and let the cake mix settle by itself and put some oil or Pam on a spoon or spatula to spread it gently. The coffee cake is in the oven now, and the temptation from the smells are real! I cannot wait to try to make the mini apple crumb cheesecakes from this website next!!!

It’s not letting me give any stars but this is a 2 star recipe, and that’s ONLY for taste. Yes this cake tastes good, but it’s impossible to execute. I’ve made this cake twice. The first time I used a 9 inch spring form pan and did 1.5x recipe. The 2nd time I used an 8 inch spring form pan and did the recipe as written. The batter is WAY too thick to spread. This should not be a layered cake with crumbs in the middle. The 2nd time I made it, I mixed the apples into the batter and poured it all in as 1 layer and topped it with the crumbs. So much easier that way. Never again will I try to make this as written because it was so stressful and really just turned into a mess of batter mixed with crumb rather than 2 separate layers.

I read through comments and made this cake, expecting a great cake. It was dense, dry and not very apply flavor. I even added extra apples as to one comment. I will find another receipe for next time.

I was worried about making this at first! I used a 9 inch springform , thats all i had. It worked great! So much easier than I thought. Batter was only hard to mix on top of the streusel topping, besides that turned out great! Better than expected, tasted so good! If your hesitant to make , dont be , go for it!!!
Mine turned out thinner than pictured , but so great!

After reading all the comments about how difficult it is to spread the batter over the apples, I am going to put the batter in a disposable piping bag and pipe it over the apples and then smooth out. I do this with another recipe I was having trouble doing the same thing and what a difference it made. I know it’s another step, but it was so much easier to get everything spread out evenly. A ziplock bag would work as well cutting a corner off. This looks delicious.
