In reply to Marissa. Yayaya! So glad you like this cake, Marissa! Three cheers for coffee cake! Love the molasses addition too :)

This is SOOOO good! I have made it half a dozen times already in just the last three months! We have it for breakfast, a nice treat with coffee or as dessert. I love it so much, I made it my birthday cake :)

I have played around a bit with the recipe and have found that molasses in place of the maple syrup is quite good and coconut oil works well in place of the vegan butter and the canola oil (keep solid for the crumble and melt for the cake). Very forgiving recipe. I also prefer to bake mine in an 8 x 8 pan.

I think the recipe has potential. Maybe 1/2 c of pumpkin would make the cake moister and more pumpkin-y and adding some brown sugar and maybe vegan butter to the streusel. There just wasn’t enough fat in the streusel to soak up all the dry goods.

Hey, Sarah! I’m so sorry this recipe didn’t turn out for you – you’re the second person who has said something similar, so I definitely want to test this again to make sure I wrote the recipe correctly. I don’t mind that grainy texture, but I totally get how you’d want something a little more traditional. I tested a new streusel recipe over the weekend, and I am planning on making another batch or two just to make sure it’s spot-on. I’ll update the recipe if I find it needs updated.

Again, I’m bummed you’re bummed :/ It totally stinks when a recipe doesn’t turn out how you’d expect it to.

This was disappointing. Doesn’t taste like pumpkin at all. Only 1/4 cup?
Any secrets to making the streusel not taste like sand?
I bake all the time and I’ve never had something turn out so far from the feature photo. I’m bummed.

In reply to Alexa [fooduzzi.com]. I am allergic to everything so I haven't tried coconut oil yet. I used soy oil. I know the flours have different properties and can't just be changed 1 :1. So my question is about coconut oil. Can I substitute different oils in GF baking? And sometimes the gumminess will improve if the temp is lowered 25 deg and baked a bit longer.

In reply to Dianne. Ah. That could be the culprit! Did you substitute something in its place or just leave it out completely?

Alexa,
I have been trying to bake GF for years. Lack of structure and gummy texture seem to be common. I should mention that I didn’t use coconut oil. Does that make any difference in baking?
