Ingredients

1 box King Arthur Gluten-free Confetti Mix divided
⅓ cup vegan butter softened (or grass-fed butter)
2 eggs
⅓ cup coconut oil melted and cooled
¾ cup almond milk
½ cup coconut butter melted (for the icing, optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 F. For the streusel, chop the softened vegan butter up into chunks and add to a small bowl with ½ cup of the King Arthur Gluten-free Confetti Mix. With a fork, mash the flour into the butter until it resembles thick chunky sand. Place the bowl in the fridge while you prepare the rest of the coffee cake.
In a separate mixing bowl, beat together the eggs, coconut oil, and almond milk until well mixed. Fold in the remaining King Arthur Gluten-free Confetti Mix into the batter. Be sure not to over mix this step.
Pour the batter into a 9-inch cake pan or springform pan lined with parchment paper and greased with oil. Sprinkle the streusel mixture over top of the batter evenly. Bake in the oven for 40 - 50 minutes until golden on top. Check to make sure it's done by inserting a toothpick in the middle to see if it comes out clean.
Melt the coconut butter, drizzle over top of the coffee cake, slice, and enjoy!

Notes

Coconut butter melting tips : The best way to melt coconut butter is with a double boiler. The indirect heat will melt the coconut butter effortlessly. You can make your own double boiler by placing a skillet with the coconut butter over top of a pot of simmering water. Stir continuously until thin. An alternative way to melt coconut butter is in a skillet over low heat with an extra tablespoon of coconut oil. Again, stir until completely melted.

Icing alternatives : A simple powdered sugar icing can be used in place of the melted coconut butter. Mix together ½ cup powdered sugar with 1 tablespoon almond milk and stir until thin. Drizzle over top of the coffee cake and enjoy!

Storing : To store this confetti dairy-free coffee cake, place it in an airtight container either sliced or unsliced. A cake container like this one will also work. The cake will keep fresh for up to 5 days out on the counter or a week when stored in the fridge. When ready to enjoy, warm a slice up in the microwave in 15 second intervals until warm to the tough.
