Old-Fashioned Coffee Cake
"I have many buttermilk recipes, and this one brings back the flavor of old fashioned homemade doughnuts," says Rita Reifenstein of Evans City, Pennsylvania. Spiced with nutmeg, slices of the tasty cake are even more tempting served with a dollop of whipped cream.

Great recipe...perfect crumb and good for using up buttermilk. Hard not to eat the whole pan though :)
delicious! my go to recipe for a quick breakfast treat!
Very quick and delicious recipe. This is one of my go-to recipes whenever I buy buttermilk and want to use up that quart before it expires. I also like that it only makes 9 servings since it is only my husband and I.
Love this recipe! It was one of the first cakes I ever made. I added cinnamon to the batter and make it in a bundt pan and drizzle it with a thin icing made from water, icing sugar, vanilla, sugar, and nutmeg! I've tried it with buttermilk and 1% milk, but the buttermilk is definitely much better!
Really liked this. Easy to make with ingredients on hand. I ate 1/3 of it and would eat more but I keep thinking about the calories. Next time I might incorporate cinnamon or a different topping but the cake was great.
Awesome! A perfect size for 2 people, smelled divine when it was baking, and it tastes INCREDIBLE! Light, but a rich taste from the buttermilk. So easy to mix up too.can't wait to make it again!
My family LOVES this. I put the "topping" in the batter, and then we ice it with cream cheese icing for Jesus' birthday cake on Christmas morning.
Quick and simple and tastes good, too. I doubled the recipe and it appeared that they both cooked fine, but once they were out of the oven, one of them fell in the center. When cutting it once cooled, that one was not completely cooked in center. My pans were 8 in. instead of 9 in., but the other one was fine. ??
OMG! This is out of this world. I have already eaten half the cake myself in less than two hours.Jean
