1/2 cup brown sugar packed
1/2 cup nuts chopped
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon ground
1 1/4 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup honey
3 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
2 eggs
1/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 apple large cooking such as Golden Delicious or Rome Beauty, peeled and thinly sliced

Preheat oven to 350°. Spray with non-stick coating or grease an 8 x 8 x 2-inch baking pan.

In a small bowl, stir brown sugar, nuts, 2 tablespoons flour, melted butter or margarine, and cinnamon until blended set aside for topping.

In a small bowl, stir together 1 1/4 cups flour and baking powder set aside.

In a small mixer bowl at medium speed, beat honey and 3 tablespoons butter or margarine until creamy. Add eggs, milk and vanilla and beat until blended. At low speed, beat in flour-baking powder mixture just until blended, scraping bowl. Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes. Spread half of the batter in pan, then half of the sugar-nut mixture and remaining batter. Arrange apple slices on top, pushing edges slightly into batter. Sprinkle with remaining sugar-nut mixture.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.

Serve warm or at room temperature. Cover leftovers with foil and store overnight at room temperature. If desired, reheat before serving.

Note: Coffee cake can be prepared the night before. Assemble, cover and refrigerate. Uncover and bake for 35 to 40 minutes.
