Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup milk
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 eggs
• 0.75 cup brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cup chopped nuts (optional)
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

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, whisk together 2 1/2 cups flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Step 3

Cut in 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, 2 eggs, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Step 5

Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, mix together 3/4 cup brown sugar, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, and 1/2 cup chopped nuts if desired. Sprinkle half of this mixture evenly over the batter in the pan.

Step 7

Pour the remaining batter over the sugar layer, spreading it evenly. Then sprinkle the rest of the brown sugar mixture on top.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Let the coffee cake cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing. If desired, dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Step 10

Enjoy your delicious coffee cake warm or at room temperature!
