Great recipe Stephanie
I made some minor tweaks used 3/4 cup brown sugar and did mix of flours spelt almond and all purpose
I added oats and almonds to topping and reduced sugar
Next time would spread batter then add peaches so dispersed evenly
Definitely will make again great to bring to any friends gathering Yum!,

why do you call it coffee cake when there is no coffee in it..make no sense..seen so many recipes like this when they say coffee cake with not coffee..gee add the coffee
Stephanie Brubaker says
This type of cake is widely referred to as coffee cake because it is typically eaten along side a cup of coffee. It is not coffee flavored 🙂

Thanks! I had a big zucchini with a narrow neck so I stuffed the big part & shredded the neck for this, only came to 1c which meant I modified it a bit.
I’m also a “opportunist ” baker & use whatever is on hand. In this case, maple yogurt (full fat) that I got free from a store promotion. Replaced all the oil, some of the milk & sugar with it.
Any more moist & it t would be mush! But tasty, recommend removing from pan ASAP. I didn’t & bottom got a little soggy.
I have 2 volunteer peach trees, cling fruit so I don’t enjoy canning them. Always looking for recipes.
I used the smaller ones that tend to be less sweet & juicy for this. Right amount of sweetness for coffee cake, brown sugar enhances peach flavor. And I added my favorite spice, mace, to chopped peaches while I mixed the rest.

I’m all about any recipe that uses up zucchini. I actually have a zucchini peach salad on my blog so the combo seems totally natural to me. I’m definitely trying this out and I can already taste that crunchy caramelized sugar on top!
Kacey @ The Cookie Writer says
Zucchini is coming in by the bundles from my garden so I know exactly what I will be making!
Patricia @ Grab a Plate says
This is soooo pretty! It looks like a treat my mom used to make when I was young, but not w/ the added zucchini — what a great idea to add it!
Erin @ Texanerin Baking says
Cake for breakfast is definitely acceptable when it’s filled with zucchini! 😉
