Cherry Streusel Coffeecake







Ok, so this recipe use cherries straight from the can. Pie filling to be exact. So when I saw this I was like "I can't make that, it feels like cheating, straight from the can....." But then I was looking at the photos of it and I didn't want to wait until fresh cherries were in season and on sale. And it's always nice to have a recipe or two that is just really simple to make at a moment's notice. So in making these I wanted to do individual ones and then I found the little heart springform pans I got for Valentine's Day and never got to use. I only had three and for some reason thought, "Oh, that will be fine" the fact that things rise in the oven had completely escaped me. So if you decide to make individual ones, use about 4 or 5 dishes or simply your life a just make a big one so you can have as much as you want and are not restrained to a portion of it. 







One thing to change if I were you. Instead of have cake/filling/cake/streusel, have cake/filling/thin cake/lots of streusel. It would make it even better.


I always think I post too many photos. It's generally about 13ish for each recipe, unless I feel totally dimished by that baking adventure so it's far less. But I found about 13ish is my normal. I would rather just see more photos of something when I look at a food/recipe blog rather than one or two and feel totally left out of the process. Any thoughts?

Those look so amazing! I feel you when it seems like you're cheating using pie fillings but I have to admit, they're so good! And MORE streusel is always better in my book :)
