Apple Coffeecake with Granola Topping

1 c. butter
1 c. sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. vanilla
dash of salt
2 c. flour
1 c. yogurt
3 c. diced apples
Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and mix until incorporated. Add vanilla, baking powder, and baking soda while mixer is whirling with the eggs addition. Add one c. flour, incorporate, then all the yogurt, incorporate, and the rest of the flour. Once that is mixed, added the apples, and mix.
But in a buttered and floured tube pan, and top with an equal mixture of brown sugar and granola to taste. Bake 45 min. in a 350 degree oven. It is good the first day and better the second. I made this for a 'thank you Abe' dinner--he is helping rebuild a retaining wall around the pool, and it is hot, heavy, tiring work. The dinner was steak and potatoes--literally--with some cake and caramels (also quite delicious) for dessert. It is not fancy, but when comfort outweighs all competing interests, this is a great cake.
