My Meatless Mondays - Cranberry Nut Coffee Cake

This is a muffin recipe from allrecipes.com that I baked in a square pan and made into a cake.  I made my own topping for this cake. My husband's evaluation: "Don't lose that recipe."  His usual response, "It is good."

This is one of those days.  I had completed My Meatless Mondays and all that information disappeared.  I hope I can re-create it here.  Bear with me, please.
