Apple Coffee Cake

This is a great recipe which I have been making a fair bit lately because
its sooo easy and it has minimal prep time.

Ingredients:
2/3 cup butter or marg. (room temp)
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
1tsp. vanilla
1 1/3 cup flour
2/3 tsp. baking soda
1/8 tsp. salt
1 chopped fresh apple (about a cup)
1/3 raisins (optional)

Topping
1/4 cup flour.
1/4 cup brown sugar(firmly packed)
2 tbsp. butter or marg. (room temp)
1/2 tsp. cinnamon

In mixing bowl, cream buter and 1/3 cup sugar until light/fluffy. Beat in
sour cream, vanilla and egg
Combine the flour, baking soda and salt. Mix into creamed mixture. Blend Well.
Combine all of the topping ingred. until mixture forms coarse crumbs
Spoon half of the batter into a greased 8inch round cake pan.
Sprinkle with apples and raisins and half the topping mixture
Top with remaining batter, sprinkle remaining topping over top of the cake

Bake at 350F for 25-30 minutes. It's best served warm!! Also very nice
with vanilla ice cream.

Can the apples be Granny Smith apples? I have too many of those and I have all the other ingredients (if I have time that is) to make this.

Thanks in advance for your answer.
