Ingredients
- 2 3/4 cups granular fructose
- 2/3 cup baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground clove
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup optional chopped fruit (such as apples or berries)
Instructions
-
Sift the Dry Ingredients: Start by sifting together the granular fructose, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and salt. This step ensures that your dry ingredients are well combined and free of lumps, which will help achieve a smooth batter.
-
Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the pure maple syrup, unsweetened applesauce, and water. Stir them together until well emulsified and evenly mixed.
-
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the sifted dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in a dense cake.
-
Incorporate Optional Fruit: If you choose to add chopped fruit, fold it into the batter gently. This will add a delightful burst of flavor and texture to your coffee cake.
-
Prepare for Baking: Pour the batter into a greased 8-inch square baking pan. Smooth the top with a spatula to ensure even baking.
-
Bake: Place the pan in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 25 minutes. The coffee cake is ready when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, cut into squares and enjoy!
