My New Jersey Crumb Coffee Cake


Growing up in New Jersey, we had crumb buns every Sunday from our local bakery.  I have dreamed about those buns ever since I left there.  I created a recipe for Crumb Coffee Cake, which is absolutely fantastic, but it’s a cake not a yeast dough like the buns I remember and ever since then I have been trying to recreate a true bun.  In bakeries, crumb buns are made in a try and they are square.  I never mastered the true bun.  They always lacked flavor so I decided to add the crumb to the base and make them a rolled bun instead.


The result was incredible and just as I remembered from back home.


Traditionally, crumb buns are topped with powdered sugar, but I made these as a special treat for my little boy when he was having a bad day.  He asked for icing so that’s what he got but you can top them with what ever you’d like.  They are delicious either way.


I recommend eating these fresh (warm is to die for).  They just aren’t as good left over.  So dive in and indulge because these soft, fluffy buns with their crisp crumb topping are worth it!


To make them, prepare the dough, knead and leave to rise until it at least doubles in size.
