This from-scratch coffee cake is quick to put together, and it easily serves a crowd. While it's delicious with peach or apricot pie filling, I like to make it with cherry or strawberry filling during the holidays.

Prep: 20 min. Bake: 20 min. + cooling

Yield: 16-20 Servings

20 20 40

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
1-3/4 cups sugar
4 eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 can (21 ounces) peach pie filling
ICING:
1-1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
3 to 4 tablespoons milk

Directions

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the flour, salt and baking powder; add to creamed mixture and beat just until combined.
Spread 3-3/4 cups batter into a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Carefully spoon pie filling to within 1 in. of edges. Spoon remaining batter over filling.
Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean (cover loosely with foil if edges brown too quickly). Cool on a wire rack.
In a small bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar, extract and enough milk to achieve desired consistency. Drizzle over warm coffee cake. Yield: 16-20 servings.

You could not ask for a better coffee cake. It is scrumptious!

There is NO way this is done in 20-25 minues! I baked it for approx 35 minutes, and my oven is dead on!

I usually don't like canned fillings, but this was amazing! I can't believe how easy it was to make too. The flavor gets even better after it sits a day.

This was a breeze to put together on Christmas morning. I subbed cherry pie filling for the festive look. I loved the coffee cake was made in a large 15x10 pan. Perfect for serving alot of guests.
