Whole Wheat Cinnamon Coffee Cake - No Added Refined Sugar

I didn't add the sugar glaze at the end.
Adapted from Cooks.com

CAKE
2 1/2 c. flour
1 c. whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 egg
1 pkg. yeast
1 1/2 c. milk (1 cup coconut and 1/2 cup heavy cream)
1/2 c. butter
1/3 c. honey

TOPPING:
1/2 c. chopped nuts
1/4 c. whole wheat flour
2 tsp. cinnamon
1/3 c. honey


Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, whole wheat flour, salt and yeast. Heat milk, butter and 1/3 cup honey to 120-130 degrees. Add liquids and egg to flour mixture. Blend until moist. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed. Stir in 1 cup flour. Spread evenly in 9 x 13 inch pan.

Combine topping ingredients, spoon over dough and swirl lightly. (Mine was very dough like and there was no swirling happening) Batter will be sticky. Let rise 1 hour. Bake 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees.

Glaze: Mix 1 cup powdered sugar and 1-2 tablespoons milk. Pour over warm cake. (I omitted)

I think next time, I'll actually roll the dough like a jelly roll to
distribute the goodies through-out the bread.
