Sour Cream Coffee Cake, A Holiday Tradition

by Karen on December 19th, 2015

Walnuts, cinnamon, and brown sugar top this coffee cake and provide a sweet layer within. Years ago we took a three-generation-old family recipe and converted it to gluten free. The key to its’ success is mostly due to adding in an extra teaspoon of non-aluminum baking powder (like Rumford).

Here is a link to the recipe

I will be making two of these this year on Christmas Eve morning…..one for us to have the following morning with coffee, orange juice, eggs and bacon for a mid-morning break….and one for our good friends.

The funny thing is no one in their family is on a gluten free diet but they LOVE this coffee cake.

About

Food is to be enjoyed….savored…even on a gluten free diet. This has been my guiding principle since my children were first diagnosed with celiac disease in 1997. Their diagnosis lead me to be a board member (2 years) for the Gluten Intolerance Group, celiac patient conference speaker, collaborator with James Beard award winning chefs on our cookbook, teacher of cooking classes, GF farmers market vendor, and blogger to help others live well on the gluten free diet. Learning how to cook can be an adventure that will introduce you to interesting people and a new way of life.
