Comment on Brandied apple coffee cake for Yom Kippur

Mary Bilyeu, ContributorThis Apple Coffee Cake is an ideal sweet treat to enjoy while breaking the Yom Kippur fast on Saturday night. Prepared ahead of time, ready to slice and serve, this uses several variations on the apples traditionally offered at the holiday to usher in a sweet new year: apples themselves, applesauce, and apple juice. After the night and day of fasting, introspection, study, and resolution during the Jewish Day of Atonement, gathering with family and friends to share a nosh is a lovely tradition.
