Categories     Coffee Cake

Time 1h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

¾ cup brown sugar
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
3 large eggs
¾ cup milk
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish; set aside.
  • Prepare cinnamon layer by stirring brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a small bowl until well combined; set aside.
  • Prepare streusel topping by combining brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl. Add butter and stir with a fork until mixture is crumbly; set aside.
  • Prepare cake by whisking together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Beat sugar and butter in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Scrape the sides of the bowl, then turn the mixer on low speed and beat in eggs until well blended. Gradually mix in flour mixture and milk. Add sour cream and vanilla and beat for 30 seconds.
  • Pour 1/2 of the batter into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the cinnamon layer over the batter, then pour the remaining batter over top. Spread streusel topping evenly over the cake, pressing very lightly so it adheres to the batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before serving, about 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling during the baking process.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your coffee cake will taste. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Cream the Butter and Sugar Together: This step is essential for creating a light and fluffy coffee cake. Make sure you cream the butter and sugar together until they are light and fluffy, and there are no lumps of butter remaining.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough coffee cake. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined, then stop.
  • Bake the Coffee Cake at the Correct Temperature: The baking temperature and time will vary depending on the recipe you are using. Make sure you follow the recipe's instructions carefully to ensure that your coffee cake bakes properly.
  • Let the Coffee Cake Cool Before Serving: Once the coffee cake is baked, let it cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will help the cake to set and make it easier to slice.
