Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup softened butter (for streusel)
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (for streusel)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for streusel)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (for streusel)
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar (for crumb topping)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for crumb topping)
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (for crumb topping)
  • 1/4 cup cubed butter (for crumb topping)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (for crumb topping)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for drizzle)
  • 2 tablespoon milk (for drizzle)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease or line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, egg, and buttermilk until smooth. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

3. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, cinnamon, flour, and brown sugar until the mixture becomes crumbly.

4. Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the streusel filling evenly over the batter. Top with the remaining batter.

5. In another bowl, mix together the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, cubed butter, and salt until the mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle this topping over the cake.

6. Place the cake in the preheated oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

7. While the cake is still warm, whisk the powdered sugar and milk together to create a smooth drizzle. Drizzle this over the top of the coffee cake.

8. Allow the coffee cake to cool slightly, then cut it into squares and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Use room-temperature ingredients for better blending.

You can substitute buttermilk with plain Greek yogurt for a tangier result.

Experiment with toppings like nuts or fresh berries for added flavor.
