Coffee Cakes: Simple, Sweet and Savory

Everything in this book turns out yummy! I highly recommend this one. Some of the ingredients are strange in my part of the country, but it's easily adaptable to local fruits or nuts

Yummy, Interesting and Healthy Recipes

Recipes are great. Not just eating white flour and sugar! Lots of recipes with fruit and nuts etc. Easy to make and well written with lots of nice photos.

Coffee Cakes Simple, Sweet, and Savory

I heard about this cookbook on a local public radio station. So far, I've only baked one recipe, "Apple-walnut mosaic coffee cake". It was delicious with many kudos received! I am looking forward to trying the other recipes in this wonderful coffee cake cookbook.
