Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 2.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup milk
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, 1.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Gently fold in the diced apples and optional chopped walnuts into the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.

Step 7

To make the streusel topping, in a small bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 0.5 cup of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 0.5 cup of cold cubed butter. Use a fork or your hands to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 8

Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter in the pan.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

If desired, dust the top of the cooled cake with powdered sugar before serving.

Step 12

Slice and enjoy your Cinnamon Apple Coffee Cake with a hot cup of coffee or tea!
