Whole Wheat Coffee Cake
Growing up, I loved coffee cake. My Busia (Grandma in Polish) would bring it over often when she would come visit us. It was from a store with drizzled on icing and we all loved it. I'm always attempting to make recipes healthier and knew it was time to try to make my own healthier whole-wheat coffee cake at home. It turned out so amazing and I am excited to share this whole wheat cinnamon streusel coffee cake with you today.

Whole Wheat Coffee Cake

You know those afternoons when you need a little treat? Or weekend brunch mornings when you need something sweet and delicious but a little bit healthier? This whole wheat coffee cake satisfies both of those needs. I used less sugar than you normally would for coffee cake, used white whole-wheat flour for more fiber and nutrients. You won't be able to taste that this coffee cake is any healthier because it tastes just so delicious! That cinnamon streusel topping is a can't-miss component.

Healthy Coffee Cake

My favorite thing to do is enjoy a piece (or let's be honest, two) with my husband and kiddos on Saturday morning with a cup of hot tea. It is perfectly cozy and warming and makes me so happy. Feel free to make a double batch of this coffee cake and freeze it for another time. Double the coffee cake with half of the effort! That's my kind of snack.
