Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter
- 0.75 cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups fresh or frozen fruit (e.g., blueberries, sliced peaches, or strawberries)
- 0.5 cups light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch square or round baking pan and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter will be thick.
Gently fold the fresh or frozen fruit into the batter, being careful not to overmix.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
In a small bowl, mix the light brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the coffee cake to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your Easy Fruit Coffee Cake warm or at room temperature!
