Cinnamon Pecan Coffee Cake
Ingredients
For the Cake:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream
For the Cinnamon Pecan Filling & Topping:
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped pecans
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Directions
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Make the Batter:
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then mix in the vanilla. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the sour cream, until just combined.
Prepare the Cinnamon Pecan Mix: In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped pecans.
Layer the Cake: Spread half of the cake batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-pecan mixture evenly over the batter. Add the remaining batter and top with the rest of the cinnamon-pecan mix. Drizzle the melted butter over the top.
Bake: Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve: Let the cake cool slightly before slicing. Enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea!
