Wow, so I think I am obsessed about trying to make breads in my crockpot now (just a little?) after my Crockpot Banana Bread making session last week went so well. Yesterday during the kidlets nap, I made Glazed Cinnamon Coffee Cake from the same crockpot recipe cookbook I used before, found here. Can I just say…holy coffee cake Batman! It was freakin’ good!
This coffee cake turned out so moist and the cinnamon flavor was just right, not too much and not too little. And the icing glaze…do I really have to say…it makes it even better. My hubby thought this was EVEN better than the Banana Bread…say it ain’t so hubby! But really, it was that good. I will tell you that you definitely need to watch the time on this one. With the banana bread recipe, I had to go a little longer on the bake time but with this one it was almost right on, if not a bit early. If you over bake this your edges are going to get nice and black and taste no good…so beware!
Alright, so I think I’ve kept you in suspense long enough.
Here’s the recipe, have at it kids!

I have a 6qt crockpot so this would come out too thin/dense?
lorlax says
I,m interested in the answer also, because I have a 6 qt. pot. Thanks Also is there some place to get accessories to use in the crockpot. I’m sorry I,m not that good on the computer
Maggie says
I would think it may…you may want to double the recipe so you have enough batter for your specific crockpot…and watch the time as well!
Nystral Djo says
if you don’t have bisquick, what else can you use?

I made this today for Thanksgiving. It was a hit. The only problem was getting it out of the crockpot. It crumbled but who cares. I put in pie dish and poured glaze over it and it was awesome.

OMG my mouth is watering! Do you mind if I use a photo and link for a roundup post?
Maggie says
Of course! Thanks, Angela!
Korey says
This recipe looks incredible! Do you have the directions for what temperature & time needed to make this in the oven instead? I’d really appreciate it!
Maggie says
Hi Korey!
I’m sorry but I don’t, I’ve only ever made this particular recipe in my crockpot!
Someone says
Maybe a silly question, but how exactly do you get it out of the crockpot when its finished cooking?
Looks awesome though, going to try it out this weekend 🙂
Maggie says
If you spray the crock well, it usually comes out pretty nicely when you go around the edges with a butter knife! If you think you might have trouble, you can place some parchment paper down first and grease it well before you add the batter. This will give you something to grip on to while pulling it out!
