Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup sour cream
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x13-inch baking dish or a bundt pan.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes with a hand mixer or stand mixer.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract and sour cream until smooth.

Step 5

Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in three additions, mixing just until incorporated. Do not overmix.

Step 6

In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and chopped walnuts to make the streusel topping.

Step 7

Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly using a spatula. Sprinkle half of the walnut-cinnamon streusel mixture over the batter.

Step 8

Add the remaining cake batter on top, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the rest of the streusel mixture evenly over the top.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely or leave it in the pan for serving.

Step 11

Slice and serve the walnut sour cream coffee cake warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
