Here are some things to consider: 1. Check the accuracy of your oven temperature with an inexpensive (ovenproof) thermometer. Hardware stores traditionally sell them cheap & they are easy to find. 2. Double check all measurements when baking. 3. Bake until top of biscuits turn golden (35 minutes is how long it should take for most ovens when baked at a true 350 degrees F, your oven make require more (or even less) time). 4. Be sure to let the coffee cake cool in the Bundt pan for at least 5 minutes as the recipe suggests (with Bundt pan cooling on a wire rack) before inverting on a serving plate. This allows the coffee cake time to cool and sugars (from sugar & marmalade) to set before turning over to serve. Other than that, I can't think of anything that might have caused this recipe to fail. Number 4 is especially important though. As you can see from the comments above, others (including myself & innkeepers) have made this recipe and not experienced problems, so it's hard for me to tell from a distance what might have caused your coffee cake to fall apart. All I can suggest is to try again, following the recipe exactly and ensuring steps 1-4 are followed. Best of luck. When your coffee cake turns out well, I know you'll enjoy it---the flavors are exquisite!

Combine that with the fact that I haven't had breakfast yet... and this is deadly! I think I'm off to eat something before I spy any more delicious recipes!
