    What makes coffee cake different from cake?

    A coffee cake is a single layer cake that is baked in either a round or square pan and topped with a streusel or crumb topping. Coffee cake is not topped with a frosting or glaze, but some coffee cakes have an icing drizzle on top of their crumb toppings, like my Blueberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake!

    Cinnamon Cherry Coffee Cake Filling

    We'll be making the homemade cherry filling for this cherry coffee cake with fresh cherries, or frozen cherries! And if you've had my cherry crumb pie, it's the same cherry filling recipe! I love making my own cherry pie filling because I can use sweet cherries, which are so abundant in markets during the summer, or frozen sweet cherries, which are so easy to bake with and even easier to find!

    If you want to save time, you can make this recipe with canned cherry pie filling, but I definitely recommend making your own! It only takes a saucepan and a few minutes, and it makes such a huge difference!

    ingredients for cherry coffee cake
    Recipe for a Cherry Coffee Cake - Ingredients

    What is a cherry coffee cake made of?

    To make the quick cherry filling for this old fashioned cherry coffee cake, you'll need:

    • sweet cherries - you can use fresh Bing, Rainier, or other sweet cherries for this recipe. You may need a cherry pitter if you use fresh cherries. I typically like to save time and use frozen dark sweet cherries, which you can find in the frozen section of most supermarkets.
    • sugar - we'll add a bit of sugar to enhance our sweet cherries! Not too much though, so that the overall sweetness is balanced.
    • lemon juice - adds a nice tartness to balance out the sweetness of the cherries.
    • cornstarch - we'll use cornstarch to thicken up the filling and give it the perfect consistency.
    • almond extract - a touch of almond extract balances our cherry pie filling perfectly!
    • ground cinnamon - this is optional, but I love the warmth of a bit of spice in this cherry filling.
    • water - if you use fresh cherries, you may need to add a splash of water to help dissolve the sugar and cornstarch.

    Cinnamon Cherry Coffee Cake

    And for the base cake layer, you'll need:

    • brown sugar & granulated sugar - this blend of brown sugar and white sugar provides the perfect warm sweetness that our cake layer needs.
    • unsalted butter - softened to room temperature -- it should be soft, but still cool to the touch.
    • eggs - your eggs should also be room temperature.
    • pure vanilla extract - be sure to use a high-quality pure vanilla extract. Or better yet, check out my post on how to make vanilla extract at home with just 2 ingredients!
    • almond extract - the nuttiness of almond extract complements the vanilla extract so well!
    • vegetable oil - just a bit of canola oil (or the vegetable oil of your choice) makes this cherry coffee cake so moist and delicious!
    • sour cream - I love how sour cream makes this cake so tender and moist! Make sure your sour cream is also room temperature.
    • all-purpose flour - be sure to use a kitchen scale to measure by weight, or use the spoon-and-level method to measure your flour mixture by volume. 
    • baking powder & baking soda - to make sure that we get a nice lift to this cherry coffee cake.
    • salt - brings out all these delicious flavors!

    Cherry Coffee Cake with Crumb Topping

    Finally, we'll make an easy crumb topping to make this recipe for a cherry coffee cake incredible! So here's what you'll need:

    • brown sugar and granulated sugar - adds a nice sweetness!
    • all-purpose flour - flour helps to create the structure of this crumb topping for our cake!
    • salt - a bit of kosher salt helps to balance out the sugar in our crumb topping.
    • unsalted butter - your butter for the crumble topping should be cold and cut into cubes.
    • sliced almonds  - I love the almonds in this topping! They get all toasty while your cake is baking, and add a delicious nutty crunch!
    • powdered sugar - this is optional, but I like a dusting of powdered sugar for a finishing touch!

    Equipment

    I made this coffee cake in a 9-inch springform pan -- here's the one I use! You can also use a 9-inch square baking pan or a round cake pan -- just make sure that you use one with deep sides, so that the batter only fills ¾ of the pan when you pour it in. Or you can also use a 10-inch springform pan, but the baking time will be a bit shorter.

    You'll also want a whisk to start off your batter, as well as an electric mixer with the paddle attachment or a pastry cutter to blend your streusel topping.

    How to make cherry coffee cake?

    1. First, you'll want to whip up your cherry filling. Just combine your cherry filling ingredients in a saucepan and cook down until thickened. Let it cool in the fridge in an airtight container.
    2. Next, make your crumb topping with a pastry blender or just your fingers. Combine butter and dry crumb topping ingredients until they resemble coarse crumbs. Set aside in the fridge to cool.
    3. Next, whip up your cake batter, starting with creaming your butter and sugar, then mixing in eggs, extracts, vegetable oil, and sour cream
    4. Follow up with your dry ingredients, fold until just combined, and then assemble!
    5. Spread half your batter into the bottom of your prepared pan, then pour cherry filling on top.
    6. Top with the rest of your batter and crumble your streusel topping on top, then bake!

    See the recipe card below for detailed instructions and ingredient amounts!

    How do you stop cherries from sinking in a cake?

    Luckily, the cherries in this cake are reduced to a thicker filling, so they're not likely to sink. If you were to just use individual cherries in this cherry coffee cake recipe, you'd want to toss them in the dry ingredients before mixing your batter together.

    Tips and F.A.Q.

    How do I get my ingredients to room temperature quickly?

    For eggs, just submerge them in a bowl of lukewarm water for about 15 minutes. 
    For sour cream, just place it in a microwave-safe mug and heat for 5 seconds at a time, stirring in between. Keep going until your buttermilk is room temperature.
    And for butter, heat your butter, wrapped, on a microwave-safe plate for 20 seconds, rotating each every 4 seconds.

    Why is it called coffee cake if it doesn't have coffee?

    Contrary to what the name might suggest, coffee cake generally doesn't contain any coffee or coffee flavor. It gets its name because it's meant to be enjoyed with a cup of coffee or tea. And that's why this cake is so perfect for a summertime brunch or a morning snack!

    Can I use store-bought cherry pie filling for this cake?

    Yes you can! Although I do prefer the flavor of the homemade version, and it's SO easy to make yourself especially with frozen cherries! But this recipe for a cherry coffee cake is still delicious and even easier with canned cherry pie filling! You can even swap out the cherry filling for blueberry, apple, or strawberry pie filling for a fun coffee cake variation!

    What makes a coffee cake dry?

    Your cherry coffee cake could end up dry if you over-measure your flour -- be sure to measure it by weight with a kitchen scale or use the spoon-and-level method. Another reason for dry cake could be that it's been baked for too long.

    Does coffee cake taste like coffee?

    Usually, no -- typical coffee cake is has butter, vanilla, and cinnamon flavors, as well as any fruit toppings or fillings.

    How do I store cherry coffee cake recipes?

    Store your old fashioned cherry coffee cake in an airtight container or a cake dome for about 2 days at room temperature, or 4 days in the fridge.

    Do coffee and cherry go together?

    Why not? Especially with its vanilla, cinnamon, and almond flavors, this cherry coffee cake goes perfectly with a big cup of coffee!

      The taste was good. I used a 9” springform pan but had to cook longer than recipe states. I also used frozen cherries and had to add more cornstarch.

      This was very good - moist, flavorful, and pretty with that stripe in a tall slice. It was also well recieved for those same reasons at a work thing it was made for. And appreciated by a couple folks whom noted it's not a common for cherries to be used in a coffee cake ... so nice change up from apple, plain, blueberry or a banana bread being provided. I used fresh cherries, but had pitted/chopped and frozen them the week before as they were running out of time.

      This didn’t work at all. I made the recipe exactly as written so I’m judging it based on that. Way too much crumb for one thing, I paused when I was pouring it on top but I decided to trust the recipe and use it all. Do not do this lol the inside didn’t fully cook through, even though I used a slightly larger springform than was recommended, and I left it in much longer than recommended. It’s still goop in the center. And the outside is very dry. It’s a 0 star for me, not recommended.

      Absolutely loved this recipe! Made it as a birthday breakfast treat. The cherry flavor is excellent, but you could fill this with any filling and it would be delicious. The base cake is so buttery and perfect!! There is A LOT of crumb topping, which is wonderful, but may make about 2/3 of it next time, love that it tastes like shortbread and gives a nice crunch. Will definitely make again and again.

      Wow! The crumb topping was, literally, the icing on the cake (so to speak!) It gave the cake an added crunch, perfect counterpoint to the moist cake and to-die-for cherry filling. I'm going to make this again with blueberries. Then again with apples!
