Ingredients for Organic Coffee Cake Recipes
Organic coffee cake recipes include organic flour, organic sugar, organic baking powder, salt, organic shortening, organic milk and organic eggs. Please note that we did not include organic salt in our list. Organic salts are typically sea salts which may give a different and unwelcome taste to an organic coffee cake recipe. Salt extraction and processing does not include insecticides, herbicides, etc. like the other items on our list so organic processing by in large does not apply.
Tools and Preparation
You will need a 13 by 9 inch baking pan. You can use the non-stick variety or you can simply grease the inside of the pan with your organic shortening or butter. You can use your hands to mix in the butter or shortening but many folks use a pastry blender. (See photo). Use the pastry blender to cut the butter or shortening into the dry ingredients. Set your oven to 350 to 375 degrees and let it heat up that temperature range before putting the coffee cake on the middle rack. Use a separate bowl and mixing spoon to mix your ingredients and then add to the baking pan.
