Provided by Rosecora

Categories     Breads

Time 50m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup margarine
2 eggs
1 cup milk
3 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup brown sugar
4 tablespoons flour
4 teaspoons cinnamon
4 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup nuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix together the sugar, margarine and eggs.
  • Stir in milk.
  • Add flour, baking powder and salt.
  • In separate bowl mix together the streusel ingredients.
  • Grease and flour a 9x13 pan.
  • Spread half the batter in the pan, sprinkle with half the streusel mix and half the nuts.
  • Add remaining batter and sprinkle with the rest of the streusel mix and nuts.

Tips:

  • Use fresh nuts: Fresh nuts will provide the best flavor and texture for your streusel topping. If you don't have fresh nuts on hand, you can toast them in a 350°F oven for 8-10 minutes, or until fragrant.
  • Don't overmix the streusel topping: Overmixing will make the streusel tough and crumbly. Mix the ingredients just until they come together.
  • Chill the streusel topping before using: Chilling the streusel topping will help it hold its shape when it's baked.
  • Use a light-colored baking dish: A light-colored baking dish will help the cake bake evenly. If you use a dark-colored baking dish, the cake may brown too quickly on the outside before it's cooked through in the center.
  • Don't overbake the cake: The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If you overbake the cake, it will be dry and crumbly.

Conclusion:

Nutty streusel cake is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover nuts. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this cake is sure to become a favorite in your home.
