Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- For the streusel:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the sour cream and vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- In a small bowl, prepare the streusel topping by mixing together the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and stir until crumbly.
- Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle half of the streusel mixture evenly over the batter. Repeat with the remaining batter and streusel.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow the coffee cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
