How to Make Apple Butter Coffee Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8x2-inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) muffin mix and 1/4 cup wheat germ.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1/2 cup apple butter, 1/2 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or apple pie spice).
- Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
- For the topping: In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 cup wheat germ, and 1/4 cup apple butter. Mix well.
- Drop spoonfuls of the topping mixture over the batter. Using a knife or toothpick, swirl the topping gently into the batter, creating a marble effect.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the coffee cake cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar.
- Serve warm with extra apple butter, if desired. Enjoy!
