Coffee Cake
Ingredients and Instructions
Streusel Topping:
- 1 Cup all-purpose flour
- 1 Cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- pinch of our Pure Ocean Sea Salt
- 1/2 Cup unsalted butter, softened
Cinnamon Layer:
- 1/4 Cup sugar
- 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Cake Batter:
- 3 Cups all-purpose flour
- 2 + 1/4 Cup sugar
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp of our Pure Ocean Sea Salt
- 1 Cup of our Butter Olive Oil (or unsalted, softened butter)
- 1 Cup sour cream
- 1/4 Cup whole milk (or half & half)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 Tbsp of our Bourbon Vanilla Extract
1. Set your oven to 350 degrees and butter/grease your 9x13 baking dish.
2. In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for the streusel (flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt) and use a fork to mash the butter into the mixture until completely combined. (About halfway through combining the butter, you can use your hands to help mix it better/faster) Set aside.
3. In another small bowl, combine the ingredients for the cinnamon layer (sugar, flour, and cinnamon) and set aside.
4. In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients for the cake batter first (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt) using a whisk to ensure there are no clumps. Add in the softened butter and mix until well incorporated - should resemble wet sand. Now add in the wet ingredients for the cake batter (sour cream, milk, eggs, and vanilla) and stir together until the batter becomes smooth. A few small lumps are fine.
5. Spread half of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mix evenly over the top of the batter. Spread the remaining half of the cake batter over the top (can be difficult because the cake batter likes to lift off the cinnamon sugar layer). Top the cake with the delicious streusel layer and gently pat it into the cake.
6. Bake for 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Make sure to cool it on a rack, or let it get to room temperature, before serving.
7. Slice it up, admire your beautiful creation, and serve it with your favorite cup of coffee!
