Apple Coffee Cake

Dear Sis,

This morning we made Apple Coffee Cake for the second time within a week, the first one, we used someone else’s recipe and it turned out way too dry, especially when it cooled! Luckily, we knew what the recipe needed to be perfect… and now it is:)

  7. Bake approximately 45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Cool at least 15 minutes before serving. When cooled completely, cover leftover cake with plastic wrap.

While the cake was in the oven, William scrambled his own eggs and cooked them too.

While he waited for the cake to cool, he read books in the reading tent just like the littles used to:)

Love,
