Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowls
  • 1 measuring cups and spoons
  • 1 9x13 inch baking pan
  • 1 electric mixer (optional)
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 rubber spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
  • Add the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter for the filling until crumbly.
  • Spread half of the cake batter into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the cinnamon filling evenly on top of the batter.
  • Pour the remaining cake batter over the filling, then use a knife to gently swirl it together (don’t overdo it, just a few swirls to create a marble effect).
  • For the crumb topping, mix the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Stir in the melted butter until crumbly.
  • Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the batter in the pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the coffee cake to cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
