    Preparing the Caramel Apple Filling

    1. Peel and dice 2 fresh apples of your choice.

    2. In a separate bowl, mix oil, sour cream, and eggs until well combined.
    3. Create a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients.
    4. Gently fold in the diced apples to the batter.
    5. Spoon half of the batter into a prepared baking pan.
    6. Sprinkle half of the streusel on top of the batter and drizzle with caramel sauce.
    7. Spread the remaining batter over the streusel and sprinkle the rest of the streusel on top.
    8. In a small bowl, crumble together flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter until you have a crumbly mixture.
    9. Once the streusel is ready, sprinkle it generously over the coffee cake batter.
    10. Drizzle some salted caramel sauce over the streusel for an extra touch of indulgence.

    Follow these steps carefully to create a moist and flavorful caramel apple coffee cake that will surely impress your family and friends.

    Baking Instructions

    Assembling the Cake Layers

    To assemble the cake for this delightful caramel apple coffee cake, start by spreading the vanilla batter into your prepared pan. Then, meticulously arrange the cinnamon-laden apple slices on top in a double layer, ensuring they overlap to cover the batter completely. Finally, sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the apples, leaving no gaps to create a perfect marriage of flavors.

    Baking Time and Temperature

    For the optimal result, preheat your oven to 350F to achieve the perfect baking environment for this caramel apple coffee cake. Once assembled, bake the cake for 36 to 42 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, ensuring the crumbs are slightly browned. This baking time and temperature combination ensures a moist, flavorful, and perfectly baked caramel apple coffee cake that will leave everyone wanting more.
