Thanks for this recipe – its great to have as I usually have the ingredients in the house and dont need to run to the store. Yummy too.

I join with all the other “Thank You for posting this”! Every year since I was a child it was a Mothers day tradition for my sister and I to bake this for my mom. When I had my children, they continued the tradition. In moving several times, along with assuming the recipe was still on the box, I lost it. This year my grand daughter gets to join in the tradition. With tomorrow being Mothers day, I would have been in big trouble if I hadn’t found it! Thank you again and Happy Mothers Day!

My daughter asked for coffee cake this morning. I went to my bisquick box, but alas, it did not have the recipe! Glad I found your website!

My mom used to make this cake for me and my two brothers growing up…but I’m only 24. This cake spans the generations.

I too went to my “Costco” sized Bisquick box, and the recipe was gone. Thanks for posting!

I’m a 15 year old kid, my friend and I used to always make this and then eat the whole coffee cake ourselves. Anything more complicated would certainly harm our teenage boy brains, so when this recipe disappeared from the Bisquick box I panicked. Looks like we’re still in buisness, though.

We did too! You’ll remember this special treat forever keep cooking!

That is sweet!! We should pass on this traditional recipe for our special days!! How the kids love it, just like we did. Was shocked how many of us there are

Yum! Thanks so much for the recipe! My box has the recipe, but I went online to check if people liked it. I just finished making it, and it’s so good! Much thanks for the streusel tip!

this is great!! been lookin for something to do with apples and the bisquick coffee cake might just work

My mom made this for us kids all the time growing up. She has the orginal recipe from the betty Crocker cookbook pamplet. It is covered with splotchs of bater.

Thank you for posting. Your right the streusel does need to be doubled as this recipe is.

For an extra delight we put sliced peaches in ours.

I love this recipe! My husband just loves it too. the broiler on our oven is being repaired and we cant wait to once again make this great recipe. we just love it1

Thanks everyone for all the nostalgic comments. I thought of Bisquick coffeecake to feed the cross country team runners in our house, and here’s the recipe! I beefed it up nutritionally with canned pumpkin, some rolled oats, and diced pears for fall. It’s in the oven. It may be a little more moist than usual, but should still be yummy. Blessings and good wishes to all who keep tradition alive.

Coffecake is just the thing to warm up the house on a chilly MN morning. I have a busy day ahead,and this is a perfect way to start it out. Thanks to Bisquick. Wishing you all a great day.

I add my thanks for posting this recipe! I live in Europe and found a small (expensive)box of Bisquick in a supermarket. Of cource I wanted to make the classic coffee cake- no recipe on the box and even Bisquick.com doesnt seem to have it. Sunday breakfast is saved!

I’m impressed how people took the time to search the Internet for this recipe, but not on Bisquick’s own web site. Go to http://www.bisquick.com and search for “Streusel Coffee Cake” (without the quotes, of course) and you WILL find this original recipe (without the doubled topping alteration).
You may also find other recipes that used to be on/in the Bisquick box. Keep in mind, that some people might be annoyed if Betty Crocker NEVER rotated some of the recipes on/in the box! It would only be ignorant… if they didn’t print recipes for pancakes and waffles EVERY time!

Don’t know if you have gotten this recipe yet but here ya go…

Irish Soda Bread from the 1973 Bisquick Cookbook

The Pride of Ireland made an easy modern way. A caraway and raisin adaptation. Good, quick and inexpensive.

1 cup Bisquick baking mix
¼ cup raisins
1tsp. Caraway seed
1/3 cup Milk

Heat Oven at 450 degrees

1-mix all ingredients

2-Spread dough in greased 8” pie pan.

3- Bake about 12 minutes or until golden. Cut into wedges, serve hot and if you like with butter. 4 to 6 servings

The fact however uncomfortable it may be to accept, is that bodybuilders in general are pound for pound the leanest athletes on the planet.

I looked for this recipe on the Betty Crocker/Bisquick website, “Bisquick coffee cake” or just “coffee cake” and never found it after scrolling thru what seemed like hundreds of pancake recipes.

Thanks from me and my family as well. I make this every Christmas morning to carry on a tradition that was started when i was a child now my kids and grandkids won’t even open presents until they have had their coffee cake and hot chocolate Christmas morning. only problem is i have to make 5 now because they have their own families. i told them they better learn to make their own i won’t be here forever lol

WAHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THANK GOODNESS FOR THE NET

This summer my son and his three young boys came to visit me in Alaska. I baked this and they loved it. I’m now visiting them for Christmas. Not anticipating their request for this coffee cake, I didn’t bring the recipe. thank goodness for the Internet and for this posting. Long distance grandmas need all the points they can get!

I am almost ashamed to admit that I triple the original streusel topping (1 C Bisquick, etc.). I have 3 boys and it is always a hit at our house. I figure if you double the ingredients that make something yummy, it is really yummy – triple the yummy ingredients and it is positively sinful. It makes ooey, gooey, cinnamon-y pockets of streusel.

I have been looking for this one for a long time too! I feel so lucky to find it.

Thank you so much for the recipe! I lost my recipe books when we moved and just like everyone else was surprised when the recipe was not on the box. I also checked the Bisquick website and could not find it. It is great to have on a cold snowbound day. Just like we had last weekend.

Halleujah! The original recipe!

Thank you so much for your website was happy to find my favorite Coffee cake recipe I see I am not the only one that LOVES this Coffee Cake. You should bring the recipe back to the new Bisquick boxes.
Thank You for this website.

I’m so glad you had the coffee cake recipe! I’m 58 and have enjoyed making it for years but lately I haven’t been able to find it, It seems it’s been replaced.If that’s the case it’s too bad. It will now go in my recipe box for safe keeping.

My first week of marriage and my husband asked if I could make a coffee cake for Sunday morning. “Of course”, I said with confidence. I went for the Bisquick box and to my surprise, no recipe. I couldn’t believe it. Thank goodness for your posting.

my mom make all the on sunday it my best thing in on that day .my has past a way and i my let my daghter have the good smell of the coffee that i had

I was thinking about this recipe the other day, but I’m not really surprised to find it here. This is an old classic and will never go away. Thank you for posting it. I’m 59 and I can remember my sisters, and I making it when I was a young child.

I just got off the Bisquick site, all I wanted was this coffee cake recipe. I was on there 45min & couldn’t get site to give me the recipe, they didn’t have a search line to list what I wanted so I guessed & guessed but…. Anyway THANKS, Thanks Linda

I’ve made this but have used a little less milk and have added diced mango and squeezed the juice out of the seed. This makes for a delicious coffee cake.

Yummy, add blueberries or another favorite fruit to make it even better!

Thank you a million times I have looked all over for this one!

Thank you sooooo much. I have looking for this for years (literally). Why did they take it off the box? Great recipe, thanks again.

You are so awesome! Along with all the above, thank you for the recipe!! I’ve been looking for it for years! I’ve wanted to share my childhood tradition with grandkids, an easy “first recipe” for them, and could not find it!! Thank YOU!!

I have been searching for this recipe for years…I used to make it for my brother and sisters when we were kids. I always doubled the topping! This is terrific.

I’m so glad that this recipe was on-line. My mother asked if I had the recipe. Of course, I didn’t. Told her I might be able to get it on-line. Thank you so much for that.

I woke up this morning wanting to share a childhood memory with my children. When the recipe for this delicious coffee cake was not on the box, I thought for sure I would disappoint them. I am so very grateful to you for including it on your website. What a wonderful trek down memory lane. I’ll be back!!

Thank you for publishing this recipe My grandaughter says it was her favorite growing up and wanted me to make it again. Thanks.

Yay! I found it. It’s no longer on the back of the box.
I made one for myself every day for a year, ate the entire cake.
First year I was married, gained a few lbs., but I was young.
Thanks for bringing back a great memory. I’m going to take a trip down memory lane, right this minute. Probably eat the whole cake!

It never did have enough topping. I also have added raisins. Thanks for the recipe.

Thanks for this! I could no longer find the recipe on the box – thank goodness for the internet! I’ve always found the cake turns out dry – so this morning I added a 1/2 cup of sour cream to the mix, and wow, what a difference – nice and moist. Perfect breakfast for a Saturday morning…

Thank you! I had this recipe and lost it; you don’t know how long I’ve been searching. It’s in the oven now. I knew it was quiick and easy but the details escaped me. It is St. Patrick’s Day and I can’t wait to eat it with my Irish breakfast tea

It is St. Patrick’s Day, and after making my mother’s Irish soda bread for dinner, I wished, as I have many times before, that I could also make the coffee cake she made with chopped dried apricots when I was growing up. I went downstairs and googled Bisquick coffee cake, and it certainly is my lucky day, because this is the cake. I read all 146 comments, looking for the variations. My mom added 1/2 cup of dried apricots, and now I can enjoy her version again. Thank you very much from another pre-boomer.

THANKS! I was desperate..snowed-in in Milwaukee (AGAIN) and wanted this good ole stand-by. It’s not EVEN on their web page or in 184 other recipes! Thanks to you, memories have been renewed!

Why don’t you put the recipe of the coffee cake back on the box. I grow up with this recipe, my mom will fix for Sunday breakfast before church. My kids love the recipe and now I have grandkids I would to make it for them.

thank for recipe…its not on the box (club size)

Thanks so much I too have been looking for this recipe for ever. My son has been asking for this.
