Apple Butter Breakfast Cake

Breakfast. Cake.

Breakfast Cake.

Is there much more you need to know?

Whenever you can eat cake for breakfast and it's actually the name of the dish, not just leftover birthday cake or something, it's a good day in my book.

Here is another great recipe for all that Apple Butter you made in the slow cooker, remember that (click here)?

You could also write out this recipe (or this one for Apple Butter Rolls!) and give it as a gift with a can of your homemade apple butter! How thoughtful and domestic of you.

This breakfast cake is moist, flavorful and perfect for a Fall morning. Try it out when your guests are in town for Thanksgiving as a delicious breakfast option!
