Easy Coffee Cake Recipe
This from-scratch coffee cake is quick to put together, and it easily serves a crowd. While it’s delicious with peach or apricot pie filling, I like to make it with cherry or strawberry filling during the holidays.

CAKE
- 1 cup butter, softened

ICING
- 1–1/4 cups confectioners’ sugar

Instructions
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the flour, salt and baking powder; add to creamed mixture and beat just until combined.
- Spread 3-3/4 cups batter into a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Carefully spoon pie filling to within 1 in. of edges. Spoon remaining batter over filling.
- Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean (cover loosely with foil if edges brown too quickly). Cool on a wire rack.
