It turned out very well. Like others I doubled the topping except for the nuts. One thing to note: Pie fillings can vary in the amout of goop/sauce, as well as in the firmness & sweetness of the apples. The store I used, did not sell comstock. So I used Lucky Leaf fruit filling and topping. I was surprised to see the can VERY tightly packed with firm, somewhat thicker apple slices, that tasted a bit on the tart side, (more like a granny smith type) there seemed to be much less goop/sauce than I remembered from whatever brand I used years ago. I cut the apple slices in chunks (these apples do not easily break up w/a spoon).Then sprinkled 1/2 ish t. of brown sugar, a t. of cinnamon, and stirred in a bit(2 to3T) of sour cream to the appled to compensate for the lack of sauce packed in w/the filling. Although I was impressed with the value & quality of the Lucky Leaf apples , I used, I may try to find comstock apples next time for a comparison. But with the addition if the sour cream and cinnamon, this cake turned out very well. Another point to consider is that my cake mix (Betty Crocker) was only 15.25 ounce. This may be why the cake was done about 5 -6 min sooner.OR my oven was running a bit hot. I am getting an oven thermometor to check that out. If you are concerned about cake mix size, there are methods on line that show how to adjust a 15.5 oz. mix into an 18oz mix. I did not see thise till after i baked this cake. A good recipe that I will probable use again.

I made this recipe on 12/15/11 for the " Let's P-A-R-T-Y 2011 " Event. I don't know what to say about this recipe that hasn't already been said. But I'm going to try " It's fast,easy,and the taste is just so good and it's very moist ". And since I like the crunchy tops of coffee cake, everything for the topping was doubled except for the nuts.. Thanks for posting a recipe that will be made many,many times in the future. " Keep Smiling :) "

This was great, and so quick to throw together! I didn't have a yellow cake mix lying around, so I used a cinnamon swirl one instead. I didn't use nuts in the topping because there are nut allergies at work (where the cake was going), but I doubled the rest of the topping ingredients and threw in a packet of plain instant oatmeal (trying to compensate for the missing bulk of the nuts). Very moist cake, too. I'll definitely be making this one again! Thanks for posting!
