Cinnamon Nut Coffee Cake image

On Sundays, friends and neighbors would stop at my Auntie Rae and Uncle Gene's house. Auntie Rae never cooked on Sundays, so she'd make this coffee cake on Sunday evening, from her own special "receipt", as she called it. The next day, she'd serve it from the warming closet of her cast-iron kitchen range.

HONEY NUT COFFEE CAKE



Honey Nut Coffee Cake image

New York City stinks. Garbage, exhaust, crowds of human beings, and who really knows what. Fortunately there are little pockets of fragrance everywhere. My favorite city smell comes from the street-nut carts. The men who mind the carts stand all day long tossing peanuts in sugar over heat in copper drums, sending burnished sugar smoke wafting down the sidewalk. There's no need to advertise or call out for customers. That smell, on an early fall afternoon, half hot and half cool, is like a magnet. This candied-peanut butter cake is an ode to those nut-cart guys. Thank you for making New York a little more wonderful. Add 2 cups of raspberries to the cake if you'd like a peanut butter and jelly effect, or keep it plain for simple butter-nut bliss.

Provided by Samantha Seneviratne

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons honey
1/4 cup heavy cream
6 3/4 ounces roasted, salted peanuts (1 1/2 cups)
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for pan
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup whole milk, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Prepare the peanut topping: In a small saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, honey, and cream. Heat the mixture over medium heat until the butter is melted, stirring occasionally. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, until a bit lighter in color, about 3 minutes. Add the peanuts and cook until the caramel thickens slightly, 1 minute more. Transfer to a bowl and let cool, stirring occasionally, while you prepare the cake batter.
  • Prepare the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 9-inch round springform pan.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla. On low speed, beat in half of the flour mixture, then the milk, and then the last half of the flour mixture.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and smooth the top. Dollop the top of the batter with the peanut mixture and spread it out evenly. Bake the cake until the top is caramelized, the cake is set, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 55 to 65 minutes. Cover the cake with foil if it starts to brown too quickly.
  • Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool for 15 minutes, then remove the ring and let the cake cool completely before serving.

FREEZER BRAIDED NUT ROLL (COFFEE CAKE)



Freezer Braided Nut Roll (Coffee Cake) image

Originally from a Fleischman's Yeast cookbook, this has been a Christmas standard with our family for probably 30 years. Today I only make one recipe which makes 3 rolls, but when the children were little and funds were slight at Christmas, I would make these ahead in the freezer and then give them as Christmas presents for close friends. I would give them in the frozen state with a copy of the recipe for Christmas morning baking. If you like yeast breads, this is wonderful and not really hard. As often happens on Recipezaar, "don't let the length of the instructions scare you". They are provided for those who may be newbies at any kind of yeast baking and to share what I have learned over the years. Once you have mastered the technique, you can successfully double the recipe to make six nut rolls at a time. This year I served mine with Breakfast Overnight #61831 which is also ano overnight recipe. I hope you grow to like this as much as my family has over the years.

Time 50m

Yield 3 Yeast Nut Rolls, 30-36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 1/2-6 1/2 cups flour (sifted if possible)
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/4 ounces fleischmans active dry yeast (these come joined together in 3 packets of 1/4 oz each)
1/2 cup softened margarine (room temp)
1 cup very-warm tap water (120-130 degrees if you have a thermometer but I never use one. You should be able to hold your hand)
3 eggs, at room temperature
2 1/4 cups ground english walnuts, ground the finer the better
6 tablespoons sugar
9 tablespoons melted margarine
1 cup confectioners' sugar
6 -8 tablespoons water (add water gradually until "drizzle" consistency)
1 dash salt

Steps:

  • GETTING READY:.
  • Put out the eggs and margarine a few hours ahead to make sure they are "room temperature" before you begin. (TIP: margarine MUST be room temperature, but eggs may be warmed by cracking into a bowl and setting bowl into another bowl of hot water and stirring until the chill is removed)
  • Measure 6 1/2 c flour into large bowl and then separate out 1 1/4 cup and 1/4 cup from the bowl for separate additions. You may not end up using all 6 1/2 cups in the recipe. I try not to use all the flour as too much flour makes the bread dry and not as "yeasty".
  • FILLING.
  • Mix together the filling ingredients, divide into 3 equal amounts and refrigerate while making dough.
  • MAKING DOUGH:.
  • Mix together 1 1/4 c flour, sugar, salt & yeast.
  • Add margarine.
  • Gradually add tap water & beat for 2 minutes on medium speed.
  • Add eggs and 1/4 cup flour.
  • Beat on high for 2 minutes.
  • Stir in enough flour to make soft dough (it will be soft and pliable and you can handle it without it sticking to your hands).
  • Turn out on LIGHTLY floured board and knead for 8-10 minutes (today I use my Kitchenaid with a dough hook for 3-4 minutes).
  • Divide dough into 3 equal pieces.
  • Roll one piece into a 9 x 15 inch rectangle.
  • Cut into 3 length-wise strips (3 x 15 each).
  • Spread center of each strip with filling.
  • Seal each one to make 3 ropes.
  • Braid the 3 ropes, tucking ends under.
  • Wrap loosely with plastic wrap and freeze.
  • Repeat the process (steps 14-19) by rolling out, cutting, filling and braiding the remaining two piecies of dough.
  • When frozen, wrap each of the braided nut rolls tightly in plastic wrap and hold in freezer up to 6 weeks).
  • TO THAW and RAISE:.
  • Place on lightly greased cookie sheet.
  • Let stand covered loosely with plastic wrap at room temperature 8-12 hours (overnight)until raised. Draft-free is better so I put mine in a unheated oven overnight for this step.
  • TO BAKE:.
  • Remove plastic wrap.
  • Put bread in oven, set timer for 12-15 minutes and start oven at 375. (Bread will raise a little more during pre-heating, OR preheat oven at 375 and bake for 10-13 minutes. I've done it both ways).
  • Top should be slightly golden - don't let bottom get too brown.
  • Remove from oven and drizzle with glaze.
  • Serve while warm.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect consistency for the dough, ensure that the butter is cold and cut into small pieces. This will help create a flaky texture.
  • Chilling the dough before rolling and baking is essential. This allows the butter to firm up again, resulting in a more defined layering and flaky texture.
  • When brushing the egg wash on the pastry, be sure to do so gently to avoid tearing the delicate dough.
  • To prevent the filling from leaking out during baking, seal the edges of the pastry securely before placing it in the oven.
  • Keep an eye on the oven while baking the coffee cake. The filling should be golden brown and bubbling, while the pastry should be a light golden color.
  • Allow the coffee cake to cool slightly before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the filling from spilling out.
