If you've read my previous blog entries, you'll know how much I love making Mexican bread! I was surprised to see this recipe for Conchitas/Conchas in Nick Malgieri's book, "Bake!" However, he didn't call them by their traditional name, he called them Mexican Buns made with brioche dough. So, I decided to give them a try. And, I'm so glad that I did, because they were perfect! The topping was so yummy too!
I've said it 100 times, I really do not like anything banana, but this crumb cake recipe by Nick Malgieri in his book, "Bake!" is extraordinary. The cake is tender, the banana turns into a smooth jam like consistency, and the crumb is delicate, yet crunchy. This banana coffee cake was a winner in my book. By the way, I didn't have coconut on hand, so I did his recommend substitution and used toasted almonds in it's place.
