Coffee Cake (Cinnamon Swirl)

I have no idea why this is called coffee cake.
It doesn't contain coffee.
It isn't even served with coffee.
I guess it could be... just never at our house.
Or anyone elses that I know of for that matter.

Truthfully, we make this for breakfast.
I like it topped with warm applesauce.
