APPLE-STUDDED BROWN BUTTER STREUSEL COFFEE CAKE



Apple-Studded Brown Butter Streusel Coffee Cake image

Cooking butter until it turns a rich brown color adds a nutty flavor to this addictive coffee cake. In fact, I don't think it's possible to pack in more appealing elements here: buttermilk batter, warm spices, streusel topping, the browned butter, and lots of apples.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup (115 g) firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup (72 g) all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons (57 g) butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes, plus more for greasing pan
8 firm-sweet apple slices (see Cook's Note), unpeeled, for garnish
10 2/3 tablespoons (2/3 cup; 151 g) salted butter
2 cups (290 g) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (115 g) firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup (105 g) granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 large egg, plus 1 egg yolk
1 cup (240 ml) buttermilk
2 medium tender-sweet apples (about 12 ounces total; see Cook's Note), peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch cubes

Steps:

  • Butter the cake pan. Set aside.
  • Make the topping: In a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Sprinkle the 3 tablespoons of butter cubes over the mixture and use your fingertips to work it in to form a crumbly topping. Chill in the refrigerator while you prepare the cake.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Make the cake: In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to turn a medium nut brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugars, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices. In a medium bowl, beat the egg and egg yolk to blend. Whisk in the butter and buttermilk, then pour the liquid mixture into the flour mixture and stir just to combine. Fold in the apple cubes and pour the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the topping over the cake and arrange the apple slices around the top, lightly pressing them into the topping. Bake until the top is golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes. Set on a cooling rack for 20 minutes, then check to see if the sides of the cake are sticking to the pan in any spots. If so, use a thin knife to loosen them. Carefully remove the sides of pan, transfer to a platter, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you begin baking, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and tools measured, prepped, and ready to use. This will help ensure a smooth and successful baking process.
  • Use Fresh, High-Quality Ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will yield the best-tasting results. Opt for organic or locally-sourced ingredients whenever possible.
  • Cream Butter and Sugar Thoroughly: For both the streusel topping and the cake batter, it's essential to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This helps incorporate air into the mixture, resulting in a tender and flavorful cake.
  • Measure Flour Correctly: To avoid adding too much flour to the cake batter, use the spoon and level method to measure. Scoop flour into a measuring cup using a spoon, then level it off with the back of a knife.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined, taking care not to overwork the gluten in the flour.
  • Bake the Cake until a Toothpick Inserted into the Center Comes Out Clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is fully baked without overbaking it.
  • Let the Cake Cool Completely: Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting or serving. This will help prevent the frosting from melting and ensure the cake holds its shape.
