Don't get me wrong. This was a wonderful recipe, but I think you need to be warned that your results might be different.
Apple Toffee Coffee Cake
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
3/4 cup canola oil
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 cups self-rising flour
2 cups peeled and diced tart apples
1 bag (8 ounces) chocolate toffee bits
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 9 x 13 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine sugar, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Stir in flour. The batter will be very thick at this point. Stir in apples and 1 cup toffee bits. Spread into prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with toffee bits.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool slightly before cutting.
Hints & Suggestions:
- I finely diced the apples, which made the apples a little less prominent
- I didn't have chocolate toffee bits, so used plain Heath toffee bits. And the package had been previously opened, so I just saved some to sprinkle on top
- Check your self-rising flour to make sure it's still viable. Sometimes the baking powder in the self-rising flour will lose it's 'umph'.
Enjoy!
