In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 0.5 teaspoons of baking soda, 0.5 teaspoons of salt, and 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together 0.5 cups of softened unsalted butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
Mix in 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in 2 cups of peeled and diced apples until they are evenly distributed.
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and spread the batter evenly in the dish.
Prepare the streusel topping by combining 0.5 cups of brown sugar, 0.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 0.25 cups of melted unsalted butter in a small bowl. Mix with a fork until crumbly.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the cake batter.
Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
The next morning, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove the plastic wrap from the dish.
Bake the coffee cake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the coffee cake to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
