Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 0.75 cup milk
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for apple filling)
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (for streusel topping)
- 0.25 cup light brown sugar (for streusel topping)
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for streusel topping)
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, cold and diced
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round or square baking pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
In another bowl, toss the sliced apples with the light brown sugar and cinnamon for the filling. Arrange the coated apple slices evenly over the cake batter.
To make the streusel topping, mix the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Add the diced butter and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to blend until crumbly.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the apples in the pan.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven 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 10-15 minutes, then serve warm or at room temperature.
