Vegan Coffee Cake
Posted in Baking, Breakfast, Brunch, Kid-Friendly, Recipes | No Comments »
Here’s another recipe from my recent vacay menu. We were the King & Queen of sweets for breakfast last week and this one was top notch.
Like the key lime pie, this one also comes from Isa Chandra, though this time it was from one of her books, Vegan Brunch, instead of her blog. Clearly, she rocks the house.
As you might expect, this would be an excellent addition to any breakfast or brunch menu. Enjoy!
