FANTASTIC APPLE SOUR CREAM COFFEE CAKE



Fantastic Apple Sour Cream Coffee Cake image

This addition of sour cream in this coffee cake makes it so moist and delicious! This is one of my all-time favorite cake recipes, I have even made this cake with fresh blueberries adding in 1 tsp almond extract to replace the vanilla, or you can even add it in when using apples --- this cake is fantastic without the topping and just used as a white cake --- I usually double the brown sugar topping and spread half of the cake batter in the pan then sprinkle half of the topping then top with remaining batter, the batter will not really cover the topping mix if you are using a 13x9-inch pan but not to worry it will bake together just fine and besides you will be sprinkling the remaining batter on top anyway! --- serve this with whipped cream or ice cream, *SO* delicious!

APPLE CREAM COFFEE CAKE



Apple Cream Coffee Cake image

This is like an apple pie and a coffee cake all rolled into one.

Provided by Chip Burrus

Categories     Other Breakfast

Number Of Ingredients 15

juice from 1 lemon
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 c milk
8 oz cream cheese softened
1/2 c sugar
1 c sugar
2 Tbsp flour
2 eggs
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp almond extract
4 c apples, peeled and sliced
1 3/4 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 c butter, softened

Steps:

  • 1. Cream butter and cream cheese in a large mixing bowl; gradually add 1 cup sugar, beating at medium speed of an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Stir in almond extract.
  • 2. Combine 1-3/4 cups flour, baking powder, soda, and salt in a medium bowl; add flour mixture to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix well after each addition. Pour batter into a greased and flour 13x9x2-inch baking pan.
  • 3. Combine 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour and cinnamon in a small mixing bowl. Dip apple slices in lemon juice. Combine apple slices and cinnamon mixture, tossing gently to coat well. Arrange apple slices on top of batter.
  • 4. Bake at 350 for 50 to 60 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Prep the Streusel Topping First: While the oven preheats, prepare your streusel crumbles. This way, everything is ready once the batter is mixed.
  • Whisk Dry Ingredients Together: Ensure your dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon) are evenly distributed. This prevents lumps in the batter.
  • Cream Butter and Sugar Until Fluffy: Use a handheld or stand mixer to beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This incorporates air into the mixture, resulting in a tender crumb.
  • Add Eggs One at a Time: Incorporate eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This helps the batter emulsify and prevents curdling.
  • Alternately Add Dry and Wet Ingredients: Start and end with dry ingredients. Alternate between adding dry ingredients and buttermilk in three additions, mixing until just combined after each addition. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tough cake.
  • Pour the Batter into the Prepared Pan: Scrape the batter into the prepared 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading evenly.
  • Sprinkle the Streusel Topping Over the Batter: Use a fork or your fingers to crumble the streusel topping evenly over the batter, creating a sweet and crunchy topping.
  • Bake Until a Toothpick Inserted into the Center Comes Out Clean: This usually takes around 45 minutes. Baking time may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on the cake towards the end of the baking time.
  • Cool Completely Before Serving: Allow the coffee cake to cool completely in the pan before cutting and serving. This helps the cake set and prevents it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

With its moist and tender crumb, sweet and tangy cream cheese filling, and crunchy streusel topping, this Apple Cream Coffee Cake is a delightful treat that combines classic flavors in a comforting and indulgent way. Whether you enjoy it as a breakfast pastry, a midday snack, or a dessert, this delightful cake is sure to satisfy your sweet cravings.
