Gluten Free Sunday Special Coffee Cake



Yesterday I had a brunch for some friends. Along with the usual vegetable baked egg casserole, fruit, and bacon I wanted to have a coffee cake to end the meal.  I looked through my recipes and found an old McCall's recipe card for a "Sunday Special" coffee cake.  I thought this would be perfect!
One of my friends is gluten free so I knew should adapt the recipe so everyone could it eat but I didn't want anyone to notice anything different.  I was successful, and was also happy I could say "no" when a friend asked if there were nuts in the cake since she was recently diagnosed with a nut allergy.
WOW  A Double Bonus!!! 


Topping:
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose gluten free baking mix
1/4 cup soft butter
1 teaspoon cinnamon 
Mix together with your fingers until crumby and set aside.

Mix together:
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

In a separate bowl beat:
 1 egg
1/3 cup melted butter
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
Add dry ingredients to bowl and mix until combined. Pour into a 8" greased baking pan.
Sprinkle topping over batter.
Bake in 375 degree oven 35-40 minutes until set.
