How To Make Slow Cooker Coffee Cake
Mix the flour, oil, brown sugar, and salt mix well in a large mixing bowl. Add the baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, eggs, and milk. Mix well.
Spray your slow cooker with cooking spray, and then pour the batter into the greased crockpot. Scatter the walnuts over the top of the batter.
Slow cook at high for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours. Just place a toothpick in the center, and when it comes out clean, it’s done.
Some Pro Tips:
- Since every slow cooker is slightly different, it’s best to check on the Slow Cooker Coffee Cake, frequently during the cooking process.
- Make sure to spray your inner crockpot liner, so the coffee cake does not stick.
- I often use slow cooker liners, to help remove the bread, and other baked goods, that I produce in my slow cooker.
- For best results, check the coffee cake, by placing a toothpick into the center of the coffee cake, when it comes out clean, the coffee cake is fully cooked.
How To Store Coffee Cake:
The most important thing to remember when you store leftover coffee cake is to really make sure that it’s covered properly. Otherwise, the coffee cake will dry out.
Ensure that it’s tightly wrapped, so no air can get into it, and dry it out. I usually wrap it a few times with saran wrap and then cover it tightly with aluminum foil.
The coffee cake will stay fresh at room temperature for about 3 to 4 days.
How To Freeze Coffee Cake:
This makes a great make-ahead breakfast recipe that I often freeze. To freeze, cut the coffee cake into pieces, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and then wrap it a couple of times with aluminum foil.
To thaw, place at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator. You can reheat in the microwave, air fryer, or stove.
The frozen Slow Cooker Coffee Cake will last for about 2 to 3 months in the freezer.
