NOTES : This is a coffee cake best served shortly after it comes out of the oven. My earliest memories of Mother’s baking is of this cake. I’ve been serving it Christmas morning as we open gifts, prepping as much as possible the night before.

Made this today and it came out great. Reminds me of Nana and the great times back in Michigan.
I just got a wood fired oven and I’m exploring the internet in search of recipes that I can use for it. I’m curious to find out how things that were meant to be baked would turn out in my brick pizza oven.
