I have more than just a Bisquick coffee cake recipe but this recipe goes back decades and was the “go to” recipe for many households. I see why folks keep asking for this recipe. It really is delicious and so easy to make.
You can get this recipe for coffee cake anywhere online, but I personally went to Betty Crocker to get the original recipe.
Bisquick Coffee Cake Recipe
Using homemade Bisquick makes a easy and delicious coffee cake. I tripled the cinnamon streusel, added a few chopped nuts, doubled the cake ingredients and made it in a 9×13 inch pan. Turned out perfectly. More comments below the recipe.
Cinnamon Streusel
1/3 cup homemade biscuit mix
1/2 cup homemade brown sugar, packed
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 TBS firm butter
Coffee Cake
2 cups homemade biscuit mix
2/3 cup milk or water
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
PREHEAT oven to 375 degrees and grease a 9″ baking pan.
Mix the streusel ingredients together in a small bowl until crumbly; set aside.
Mix the cake ingredients together and spread into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with the streudel and bake for 18 to 22 minutes. Make coffee and enjoy every bite.
NOTES:
By switching the butter for 2 ripe bananas, the cake was more tasty and moist for several days. I also topped the cake with 1 cup of frozen blueberries. A family favorite.
You could also make this easy icing: 1/2 cup powdered sugar and a little water (or milk), and mix until it is as thick as you want it. Add a little vanilla extract then drizzle on top after baking.
