Apples and Buttermilk Coffee Cake....Mmmmmmm!

I've been on a coffee cake mission, so when this recipe caught my eye I decided to bake it this weekend. Let me tell you, it didn't dissappoint and as a matter of fact, there's only one piece left...and it's only Sunday afternoon! Interested in the last piece? I'll put the coffee on!

A big "THANKS" goes out to Rorie for sharing her photo of Apple Buttermilk Coffee Cake! I was browsing on flickr.com and she served as the inspiration for this web page!

Happy Baking!

• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

• 2 tablespoons butter, softened
• 1 large egg

Ingredients for the Glaze:
