Time 1h40m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter at room temperature
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3 extra-large eggs at room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups sour cream
2 1/2 cups cake flour (not self-rising)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
3/4 cup chopped walnuts, optional
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons real maple syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
  • Cream the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment for 4 to 5 minutes, until light. Add the eggs 1 at a time, then add the vanilla and sour cream. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. With the mixer on low, add the flour mixture to the batter until just combined.

  • Spoon half the batter into the pan and spread it out with a knife. Sprinkle with 3/4 cup streusel. Spoon the rest of the batter in the pan, spread it out, and scatter the remaining streusel on top. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean.
  • Let cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes. Carefully transfer the cake, streusel side up, onto a serving plate. Whisk the confectioners' sugar and maple syrup together, adding a few drops of water if necessary, to make the glaze runny. Drizzle as much as you like over the cake with a fork or spoon.

Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ½ cups pecans, finely chopped
⅓ cup white sugar
⅓ cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons melted butter
1 ⅞ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup butter
1 cup white sugar
2 large eggs
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream or creme fraiche

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter an 8-inch by 10-inch baking dish.

  • Don't overbeat the batter: Overbeating can result in a tough, dense cake.

  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting and sliding off the cake.
  • Enjoy the cake! Cinnamon fluff cake is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
