Last week when I prepared this coffee cake, it was gone within minutes. That weekend, breakfast turned out fancy, my cup of coffee was tastier with this cake and especially kids loved it. They were not very happy when we ran out of the cake, so I figured that I should surprise them again. They loved it!
In this recipe, I am using raspberries, but you can replace them with any other berries. Most stores have a great collection of different berries in a freezer section.

Hi Natalya, do you recommend any other sugars to make
This? Maybe coconut sugar or honey somehow
To make this fluffy texture it would be hard to achieve with other sugars, honey wouldnt work same way. But, I havent tested with many different sugars, if you try something new and it works, please report back.
I baked this desert today for the first time, it turned out amazing! Not too sweet, moist, light and very tasty! It was EASY to make it too, so easy that I did it with one hand (lol) while another one was holding a 8 month old baby boy! Too bad it's not going to last until the next day, because it so good!
I used blackberries btw!
Thanks Natalya!!
Dina, thank you for sharing your photos. Looks like your cake turned out perfect. You are an amazing cook, btw!
question- you say spread berries on top of the batter but it look like your berries are at the bottom...
You spread them on top but they drop to the bottom as they cook. They do stay spread out nicely.
Would u have anu eggless recipes for desserts?

Yes, if you have fresh berries on hand, that would work perfectly!
