Pumpkin Coffee Cake

November 4, 2012

With the cooler weather finally coming in all I want to eat are fall themed foods. Not like I couldn't buy canned pumpkin other months of the year, but something about eating seasonal fall flavors during fall months is just comforting. As of right now I have this coffee cake in my fridge, soup in the crock pot, and as many fall themed coffee creamers as a girl can make excuses to buy in the fridge. 

It is seriously no secret that I love fall. Heck the clothing choices are even better!

I recently made this lovely breakfast cake for our youth group and for my MIL and they both loved it. I imagine that warming it and serving it with ice cream or whip cream would make a really good dessert too.

I think I am in need of whip cream now.
