Beaujolais Buttermilk Coffee Cake

I have been making this recipe for years, using sliced almonds in place of the walnuts. This was originally from the Cafe Beaujolias in Mendocino, CA back in the 70's. Fantastic!

A truly amazing combination of flavors. The dressing is divine, the warm and tart goat cheese combined with the sweetness of apple ring is truly out of this world.
