Cranberry-Apple Coffee Cake

Halloween is around the corner and with it comes the start of the holiday season. Time for family, friends, shopping and lots of good food.

Thanksgiving is the first big holiday after Halloween. I like to take them one at a time, if I think about them all at once then I become overwhelmed and stressed. Being stressed during the holidays isn’t fun as we all know. My husband gets stressed about it. Already he is asking what we are having for Thanksgiving dinner.

A wide variety of methods are used when creating the perfect cake.  Generally cakes come in two different types:  foam cakes and butter cakes.  The difference is this:

  • Foam cakes-this type of cake has a higher ratio of eggs to flour.  Typically they don’t rely on baking powder or soda for leavening.  By beating the air into the eggs in a foam cake will provide the lightness and volume for the cake.  A good example is the Angel Food Cake.
