Orange Spice and Cream Cheese Coffee Cake



Ingredients:
Dry Ingredients:
1 cup flour
1 cup oats
3 Tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cloves

Wet Ingredients:
2 Tablespoons butter, softened (I used Brummel & Brown Yogurt Butter Spread)
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon molasses
2 Tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
2 eggs
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 Tablespoon fresh orange juice
Zest of one orange

Cream Cheese Layer:
8 ounces light whipped cream cheese
1 egg
1 Tablespoon fresh orange juice
Zest of one orange
2 Tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Topping:
1/4 cup oats
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup sliced almonds (or other chopped nut)
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 Tablespoon butter, softened (I used Brummel & Brown Yogurt Butter Spread)

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. 

Whisk all dry ingredients together in a medium bowl. In a large bowl mix butter, brown sugar, molasses and applesauce together until fully combined. Add eggs, one at a time. Add the remaining wet ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and fully combine. Pour into a lightly greased 9" x 13" baking dish. 

Combine all cream cheese layer ingredients together in a small bowl. Pour on top of cake layer.

Combine topping ingredients together in a small bowl. Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture. Crumble on top of the cake.

Bake for 35 minutes or until knife comes out clean and top in golden brown. 

When cut into 20 pieces, each piece contains 134 calories. (This is if you used light whipped cream cheese and the yogurt butter).
