I think I may have a sugar addiction - before I even get out of bed in the morning - I'm craving sugar. My normal breakfast consists of a sunny side up egg on a piece of whole grain bread with a slice of avocado. It is super good and it gives me the energy and protein that I need to get through my morning workout. Even with all of that though, my body still craves a little something sweet in the morning. I have to grab either a biscotti or a little something sweet to finish off my breakfast. (Pretty sure that having a dessert for breakfast isn't healthy but it gets me through my morning. Whatever it takes, right?) Surely, I'm not the only sugar fanatic out there who craves sugar the moment that they get out of bed in the morning. (Please tell me I'm not alone.) If you happen to be one of those people who like a little breakfast dessert - like me - you may want to try this lemon cream cheese coffee cake. It's just the bit of sweetness that I crave in the morning. Cream Cheese Coffee Cake Lemon Sugar- Almond Topping 1/4 cup sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon zest 1/2 cup sliced almonds Cake 2 1/4 cups flour 1 1/8 teaspoon baking powder 1 1/8 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 10 tablespoons butter 1 cup + 7 Tablespoons sugar 1 Tablespoon + 4 teaspoons lemon zest juice from 2 lemons 4 eggs 5 teaspoons vanilla 1 1/4 cups our cream 8 ounces cream cheese
Bake until golden brown, 45-50 minutes at 350. I think it might be easier to become a morning coffee drinker - then I could add a little sweet creamer to my coffee to get my morning sugar. Nah, this coffee is way better than coffee creamer.
Ciao!
