Time 1h25m

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 18

½ cup light brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch salt
¼ cup cold unsalted butter
½ cup chopped pecans, or to taste
3 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
¾ cup sour cream
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups whole milk
2 cups chopped fresh cranberries

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  • Combine brown sugar, white sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt for crumb topping in a medium bowl and toss lightly with a fork.
  • Grate the butter into the flour mixture using the largest side of a box grater. Combine with a fork or pastry knife until ingredients are combined and have the appearance of very coarse meal; the pieces should be loose and not sticking together. Stir in pecans and set topping aside.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, and salt for cake in a large bowl.
  • Combine butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in the bowl of an electric stand mixer. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract and mix, scraping the bowl as needed, for 1 minute. Add flour mixture on low speed in thirds, alternating with milk, ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just smooth. Stir in cranberries with a spoon.
  • Spread batter into the prepared baking pan and sprinkle topping evenly over the batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 10 minutes. Serve warm.

CRANBERRY CRUMB CAKE



Cranberry Crumb Cake image

With their pleasant tang and gorgeous color, cranberries take this brunch staple to the next level. Here, they're nestled in a sour cream cake batter that's topped with a butter crumb, and cook down to add the perfect burst of sour. You can use fresh cranberries or berries that have been frozen and thawed, but note that the cooking time will vary depending on which you use. Lastly, while cranberries make this cake especially nice for fall and winter, blueberries, raspberries or blackberries would be excellent in the summer.

Time 4h

Yield 24 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), at room temperature, plus more for greasing the pan
2 1/2 cups/320 grams all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 cups/250 grams granulated sugar
1 tablespoon freshly grated orange zest (from 1 or 2 oranges)
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup/240 milliliters full-fat sour cream, at room temperature
3 cups/340 grams fresh or unthawed frozen cranberries
1 1/2 cups/190 grams all-purpose flour
1 cup packed/220 grams light or dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), melted

Steps:

  • Prepare the cake: Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan and line with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. Butter the parchment. In another medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda.
  • In a large bowl, beat the granulated sugar, butter and orange zest with an electric mixer on medium until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl as necessary. Add in the vanilla. Beat in half of the dry ingredients at low speed, then the sour cream, and then the remaining dry ingredients, mixing just until no dry spots remain (do not overmix). Fold in 1 cup of the cranberries.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and spread it out into an even layer using an offset spatula. Top with the remaining cranberries.
  • Prepare the crumble: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Add the butter and mix it in with a fork until evenly moistened.
  • Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the top, squeezing into various-size clumps. Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. If you are using fresh cranberries, start checking the cake around 45 minutes. If you are using frozen cranberries, this could take 55 to 60 minutes.
  • Transfer the cake in the pan to a rack to cool completely (about 3 hours). Using the parchment overhang, carefully lift the cake and transfer to a cutting board to cut and serve.
