Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 cup water
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (for topping)
- 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the topping ingredients: softened butter, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Use a fork to form crumbly clumps.
Sprinkle the topping evenly over the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the coffee cake cool for 10–15 minutes before slicing and serving.
