Made this last night for our home group and it was SO FABULOUS!
My husband said, “I think we found our breakfast cake!!” as we’ve been on the search for a breakfast cake to begin some traditions for special occasions such as birthdays & holidays! Thank you SO much for sharing!!
I made this a few weeks ago while my mother in law was visiting and it was great! Now my father-in-law is in town and I made another batch – this time I swirled in some raspberry jam. Yum!

By the way – love your dishes. What is the name of that pattern?
This looks so delicious. I love the way you have half “nuts,” half “no-nuts.” That’s how I have to make everything at my house!
I love something that can be prepared ahead of time. This looks very tasty and I’m definitely saving this recipe!
