Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking pan. Set aside.
-
In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon for the streusel topping. Mix until crumbly. Set aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, vanilla extract, and sour cream, mixing well after each addition.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
-
Gently fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Spread half of the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing it out into an even layer. Sprinkle half of the streusel topping over the batter.
-
Add the remaining batter on top of the streusel layer, smoothing it out. Finish by sprinkling the rest of the streusel topping over the top.
-
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the coffee cake to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
