 Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake Recipe


Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake Recipe

This classic cinnamon streusel coffee cake is buttery, moist, and topped with a crumbly cinnamon-sugar streusel. It’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a cozy snack with your favorite coffee or tea.

Ingredients

For the Cake:

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
  • ¼ cup milk

For the Streusel Topping:

  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

Optional Glaze (for Drizzling):

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk or heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

2. Make the Streusel Topping:

In a medium bowl, mix the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Stir in the melted butter until crumbly. Set aside.

3. Prepare the Cake Batter:

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  2. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream and milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

4. Assemble the Cake:

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter.

5. Bake:

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

6. Prepare the Glaze (Optional):

In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more milk if needed.

7. Cool and Serve:

Let the coffee cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Drizzle with the glaze (if using) before slicing and serving.

Tips and Variations

  • Add-Ins: Fold in ½ cup chopped nuts or raisins to the batter for added texture.
  • Layered Cake: Create a middle layer by pouring half the batter, sprinkling some streusel, then adding the remaining batter and topping with more streusel.
  • Make-Ahead: This cake can be baked a day ahead and stored covered at room temperature.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze slices for up to 2 months.

Enjoy this warm, cinnamon-scented coffee cake with a steaming cup of your favorite brew. ☕🍰✨
