Now for the Apple-Cranberry Coffee Cake recipe:
Apple-Cranberry Coffee Cake
from Holiday and Celebration Bread in Five Minutes a Day
Makes one 8-inch round (or 4 1/2x 8 1/2 -loaf pan)
Oat streusel topping
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup well packed brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Cake
3 apples, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups fresh cranberries or 3/4 cup cranberry relish (since we all have lots of leftovers from the holidays)
1/4 cup well packed brown sugar
Grated zest of 1/2 orange
1 pound (grapefruit sized piece) Brioche dough (we have a brioche dough in each of our 5 books and all of them will work for this recipe, including the gluten-free recipes) or any other enriched dough from the books.
To make the coffee cake:
This recipe is slightly different than the one in the book, because I made it in a loaf pan and not an 8-inch Springform Pan
, but both methods result in a wonderfully tasty coffee cake.
Butter the baking dish
Divide the dough into 3 pieces and roll each piece out to fit the shape of your pan. Line the bottom of the pan with one piece of the dough.
Mix together all the ingredients to make the streusel until it is evenly coated with the butter. Set aside.
Mix together the apples, fresh cranberries, sugar and zest. (If you are using cranberry relish, then leave it to the side, don’t mix it with the apples, although you could do that too).
layer the dough with 1/3 of the apples and cranberries,
then top with 1/3 of the streusel. Repeat with the next layer of dough, apples, cranberries and streusel.
Repeat again with the final layer of each, then cover and let the coffee cake rest for about 90 minutes. Letting it rest will result in lighter layers of dough and more even baking.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake for about 55-60 minutes (It should feel set in the middle when poked).
Allow to cool for 15 minutes in the pan before removing from pan.
Allow to cool to room temperature.
Enjoy and Happy Holidays!
The rolling pin and loaf pan were gifts from the companies, but the opinions of them are all ours!

Hello~
Our family bakes so much bread and we try to inspire others to do the same, so that we can share bread with others to honor our heroes and help those in need. You can learn more about our grassroots bread-giving organization, Spread the Bread : http://www.spreadthbread.org
We would love to win your cookbook, the rolling pin–and the loaf pan–to bake MORE and to bake a difference!!
Thanks for all you do to INSPIRE!!!
This looks amazing! I’d love to make some banana chocolate loaf or zucchini bread with these incredible gifts!! Thank you for such a great giveaway!
I would bake a lemon cheesecake with a shortbread crust. And with the loaf pan, banana bread of course!
Pulla, tis the season…….or orange chocolate brioche
I’d make either a crusty English muffin loaf to smear homemade chocolate-hazenut butter on or an apple cinnamon coffee cake.
Well of course I would make bread gifts to give to family & friends! Just about every batch of regular bread I make includes a loaf to give away. In high school, my favorite food gift for Christmas was choc chip cookies with red and green MM’s on top. Back then you had to pick through the bag for just the red/green ones, so I had lots of leftovers.
I would make an almond puff pastry:) We love these at Christmas.
A chocolate-orange babka!
One of my goals for 2019 is to perfect homemade flatbreads–tortillas, naan, pitas, the whole world of breads. I would roll them out with this rolling pin.
I would make a cherry coffee cake
If I got the roller and loaf pan I would make my mother’s Mah Jong Rugelah and her Bananna Nut Bread.. As a young boy of 6 or 7 years I would help my mother make these wonderfully delicious cookies and nut bread she would serve her weekly Mahzz groups. She would roll out the dough and my job was to spread the filling and then paint them after she did the rolling and shaping. I would only get to eat the burnt ones because the good were “always for company.”
We would bake a savory pull apart bread – yum!
I’ll definitely make cut out cookies. I have about 500 cookie cutters I’ve collected through the years. I just need to learn how to decorate them and I’ll be set.
I think the first thing I’d try in the liaf.pan is a Honey Oatmeal bread. I recently made one fir the first time and am anxious to make it again.
Banana bread, which my whole family loves. We buy old bananas specifically for it.
How about cinnamon rolls in a loaf pan!!!
What wouldn’t I make is this pan? Although this coffee cake would be a yummy start!
I would make my Florence’s Coffee Cake Brioche-Style!
I would make a loaf of honey whole wheat bread!
Coffee cakes!
I just baked buns for sloppy joe’s tonight using your bread in 5 recipe. I couldn’t believe how easy it was. I thought they came out a little dense so I’ll have to work on that.
I can’t wait to make the Star Bread. It looks so pretty!
Looks delicious, can’t wait to try it!!! We truly love having a bucket of dough in our frig, I think I would enjoy making a dried cherry, chocolate nut loaf. Thank you for sharing all of your great recipes . Happy Holidays everyone
bread pudding 🙂
Hi! If I get picked as a winner, I would try layering sourdough with cheese and walnuts in the loaf pan.
I like challah
Love your baking! The Emile Henry pan would make my lemon-raspberry streusal loaf even more fabulous with an amazing crust.
I would make a chocolate orange babka for my oldest son. His favorite stocking stuffer is the chocolate orange that breaks into pieces that look like orange segments. It’s his favorite flavor combination!
I would make a cranberry pumpkin loaf.
My grandmothers babka recipe would be perfect in this !
Anything in your Artisan Bread In Five website loves me which causes me to drool over the photos you take. Dreaming to bake up babka (with chocolate!), brioche. etc.! 🙂
Coconut Banana Bread with Lime Glaze! Or Chocolate Banana Bread! Or Chocolate Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread! Or Almond Joy Bread! Too many good choice!
I have a really good recipe for “booze cake” that I would make in this pan!
I would love cherry cream cheese bread with lots of orange zest.
My family loves the taste and scent of anything orange. During the holidays I try to bake at least one orange pound cake. This pan would be a great way to “down size” the recipe. Thanks for your great recipes!
I would make Swedish cardamom bread. Reminds me of my younger days
Thank you for hosting such a FUN and GENEROUS giveaway! I would bake my grandmothers banana walnut bread!
Gluten Free Banana Nut Bread
Wondering what to do with the left over cranberry relish, this sounds soooo good
The buttermilk bread recipe from your original book with the addition of fennel seed, instead of the raisin filling use chopped figs and walnuts and fennel sugar.
How about cinnamon swirl bread?
I would make cinnamon rolls, pumpkin bread, and sweet potato bread!
Sour cream coffee cake and banana bread.
Omgosh that looks so amazing. Fingers crossed to win this great vessel.
I might make Nutella babka! YUM
I’m really excited about possibly winning the book!!!
First on the list for holiday baking would be a chocolate babka. I’m also looking for inspiration but until then it’s pound cakes and milk bread for days.
I would make a fruitcake and my family’s favorite pumpkin bread!
Would definitely make some lemon poppy seed loaves, but more importantly, everything from the new book!!
I’d love to make a fruit and nut bread
Chocolate babka
