The best Strawberry Coffee Cake Recipe
I made a double batch of strawberry freezer jam last week and ran out of the strawberries that we had picked. Today I was at the farmers market and they had the best looking strawberries, so I bought a bunch more……….now what am I supposed to do with all these?? Make STRAWBERRY COFFEE CAKE of course.
The Topping: Now that I have figured out that the food processor does a much better job and is so much easier, I rarely use a pastry blender. See pictures below.

Thanks Dina!
I made this for my daughter’s birthday breakfast (she’s 17), and she loved it! Even my carb-free husband broke down and had a piece. Great recipe!
Hi Kelli! So glad to hear everyone liked it! :)
Great recipe! I was following the instructions exactly, which left out adding the vanilla- I should have used my common sense and added it at the right time, as I’m sure everyone else does when making this!
I would like to make this in a 13 x 9 in pan. Should I triple the recipe and how much longer should I bake it?
Hi Jessi. Just double the recipe, not triple it. I would say 40-45 mins for the cooking time, but keep an eye on it so that it doesn’t start to brown. Thanks
Seriously delicious! I made it twice in one week.
Hi Kris, I’m so glad you like the coffee cake recipe. Thanks for taking the time to comment, we appreciate it.
This was very good but it took about 20 min longer to bake that what the recipe stated. I will definitely make again.
Terri, So glad you liked the recipe. Thanks for taking the time to comment, we appreciate it.
