Coffee Cake
- 1 tablespoon flour - for coating the pan
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup + 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 10 tablespoons unsalted butter - lightly softened (still cool to touch)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons brewed coffee - at room remperature
- 1 large egg - at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Generously spray a 9" pan with cooking spray and sprinkle the bottom of the pan with 1 tablespoon of flour and tap out the excess.
- Whisk the flour, sugar, and salt together in a large mixing bowl until combined.
- Cut in the butter in very small pieces.
- Mix with a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs - set aside 1 cup of the flour mixture.
- Mix the baking powder and baking soda into the remaining flour mixture.
- Add the buttermilk, egg, coffee and vanilla - you may want to do this with a mixer as the batter will be thick.
- Mix everything together until the batter is smooth, fluffy - about 2 minutes.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared springform pan, making sure the top is smooth.
- Add the brown sugar and cinnamon to the reserved flour mixture.
- Toss with a fork until well blended.
- Sprinkle the crumbs over the batter, pressingly lightly so they stick.
- Bake the cake until the center is firm and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean - 50-58 minutes - mine took about 52 minutes.
- Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and allow cake to cool completely before serving.
