Coffee is a drink that helps people along the day. Almost everyone knows how coffee boosts our system and most people can’t go through the day without a cup of coffee.

I love coffee and every time I can I use it while cooking. There are delicious recipes like mousse, ice cream or cakes that use the extreme attractive coffee flavour. So today I bring here two different flavours that together make a delicious cake.

Pineapple Coffee Cake

Ingredients:

* Cake:
* 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1/2 cup wheat germ
* 1/2 cup brown sugar
* 2 teaspoons baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
* 8 oz can (8 ounces) pineapple, crushed, undrained

* 4 egg whites
* 1/4 cup natural applesauce
* Topping :
* 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
* 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350°. Lightly grease and flour an 8×8-inch pan, or use baking spray. Mix dry ingredients for cake together.

Mix remaining cake ingredients together in a separate bowo; stir into dry ingredients until just moistened. Pour into pan and top with cinnamon-sugar topping mixture. Bake 40 to 45 minutes.
