Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 1 cup Brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cups Pecans or walnuts (optional)
• 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Milk

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the sour cream. Begin and end with the flour mixture. Mix just until combined; do not overmix.

Step 6

In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped nuts (if using). This will serve as the streusel filling and topping.

Step 7

Spread half of the cake batter evenly into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle half of the streusel mixture over the batter.

Step 8

Spread the remaining cake batter over the streusel layer and smooth it out with a spatula. Then sprinkle the remaining streusel mixture evenly on top.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

For the optional glaze, whisk the powdered sugar and milk together in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled coffee cake before serving.

Step 12

Slice and serve with a warm cup of coffee or tea. Enjoy!
