Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for topping)
- 1 cup brown sugar (for topping)
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted (for topping)
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
- 0.5 cup chopped nuts, such as pecans or walnuts (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the sour cream and vanilla extract until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
In a medium bowl, prepare the crumble topping by combining the brown sugar, cinnamon, melted butter, and flour. Mix until crumbly. If using nuts, stir them in at this stage.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the batter, covering the surface completely.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the coffee cake to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve warm or at room temperature with coffee or tea.
