Gluten Free Coffee Cake

I am still too intimidated to try making GF cinnamon rolls, because if they fail, I'll have wasted the ingredients and the cost of them, which I cannot afford...So I decided on coffee cake, because I've had great success with other cakes, and it's really similar to cinnamon rolls in taste.  It was delicious!  Even my husband (who's not GF) went back for seconds!

GF Coffee Cake
1 1/2 cups all purpose GF flour mix
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup very soft butter
3/4 cup milk
2 eggs
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
Mix it all together on medium until smooth, pour into a greased 9x9 pan

Topping (optional)
1 TBSP melted butter mixed into
1 TBSP cinnamon
1 TBSP GF flour mix
3-4 TBSP brown sugar
Sprinkle on top (or just mix the cinnamon into the batter!)

Cook for about 30 mins at 350f, until cake tester comes out clean.  Cake will appear under-cooked.
