Found this on landolakes.com and made it the same day, yesterday, and it is just awesome! I can't think of anything nicer as a coffee cake - it has the almonds baked throughout and it's just too marvelous for words. You can use Amaretto instead of almond extract in glaze and cake.

Time 1h55m

Yield Makes one 9-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Coarse salt
1 1/2 sticks cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped toasted pecans
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Coarse salt
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons whole milk

Steps:

  • Make the streusel topping: Mix together flour, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon salt. Cut in butter using a pastry cutter or rub in with your fingers until small to medium clumps form. Mix in 1/2 cup pecans. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Make the streusel center: Mix together remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1 cup pecans.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Make the cake: Butter a 9-inch tube pan with a removable bottom. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt into a bowl.
  • Beat butter and granulated sugar with a mixer on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, then vanilla. Beat in flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with sour cream, beginning and ending with flour. Continue to beat until well combined.
  • Spoon half the batter into pan. Sprinkle streusel center mixture evenly over batter. Top with remaining batter, and spread evenly using an offset spatula. Sprinkle streusel topping mixture evenly over batter.
  • Bake until cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack, and let cool completely. Remove cake from pan, and transfer to parchment.
  • Make the glaze: Mix together confectioners' sugar and milk. Drizzle over cake, and let drip down sides. Let set for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting.
  • Use unsalted butter so you can control the amount of salt in the cake.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a tender cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together before adding them to the batter. This will help prevent lumps.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough cake.
  • Bake the cake at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting.

Conclusion:

The Cinnamon Almond Streusel Pound Cake recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. It is moist and flavorful, with a crunchy streusel topping. The cake can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator or freezer. It is also a great gift for friends and family.
