Pumpkin Coffee Cake


Pumpkin Coffee Cake

If you're a regular reader here, you may remember me sharing this delicious pumpkin coffee cake recipe before. We've decided to make it a pre-Thankgiving brunch tradition every November, and made it again this past weekend. It was so good that I felt compelled to share it again. The recipe is adapted from coffee cake my husband's grandmother often made that he and his family call "Nana's Sunday A.M. Favorite."
Really, it's great for any time of the year. But the pumpkin addition makes it especially fun to serve during the fall and holiday season.

2 cups pumpkin puree
1-1/2 cup milk
2 eggs

I hope you love this seasonal brunch staple as much as we do. Happy (almost) Thanksgiving!
