BREAKFAST CLUB

Breakfast lovers, rejoice! You have an excuse to indulge in the morning meal any time you wish this September, because it’s national Breakfast Month. With so many options for breakfast, the key to my success is easy and satisfying for the whole family. Sour Cream Coffee Cake is an old family classic, baked straight from my “Nanny’s” kitchen. This recipe has a rich buttery flavor, filled with a cinnamon sugar swirl, and will pair well with a soothing cup of tea or coffee to give your day a boost.
