Cinnamon Almond Coffee Cake (GF & DF)





This coffee cake has no real sugar, no diary, and of course no gluten!




Cinnamon Almond Coffee Cake


Cake:
1/4 C coconut oil
1/4 C honey
1 egg
1 t vanilla
1/2 C coconut milk
1 C GF All Purpose Flour- use your fave, mine is Sarah's 
1/2 C almond meal- I just ground some almonds up in my Vitamix
1 t cinnamon
2 t baking powder
1/2 t sea salt

Topping:
1/2 C almond meal
2 T GF All Purpose Flour
1 1/2 T coconut oil
1 T honey
2 t Cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350.  Stir coconut oil, egg, vanilla and honey together in a bowl.  In a small bowl, combine almond meal, flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and sea salt.  Add dry ingredients to wet along with milk, and stir until smooth.  Pour into an 8×8 baking pan.  In a small bowl mix the topping ingredients.  Spread the topping over the cake then kinda swirl it around with a knife to get it mixed in a bit.  Bake for 20 – 25 minutes.

You can find the original recipe here.  The only thing I changed was the flour, I didn't have any almond flour... and I really wanted this coffee cake so I made it work!
