Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1.5 cups Fresh blueberries or cherries (pitted and halved)
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour (for streusel)
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, softened (for streusel)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Carefully fold in the blueberries or cherries into the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
To make the streusel topping, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour in a small bowl. Cut in the softened butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture is crumbly.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the coffee cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
