Strawberry Coffee Cake

This Strawberry Coffee Cake is soft, tender and packed with fresh berries. Topped with a cinnamon streusel, you’ll love this easy breakfast treat.
Baked goodies that use fresh strawberries can be tricky. There is a fine balance between adding enough berries for flavor, but not overloading the cake with excess moisture.
I served this tasty breakfast cake with coffee at a recent women’s book club and it was such a hit. I couldn’t wait to share it here, with all of you!
