Crumb cake and coffee cake are two classic breakfast treats that can brighten up any morning. They both feature a tender, moist base and a sweet, crumbly topping. However, there are a few key differences between the two cakes. Crumb cake is typically made with a streusel topping, while coffee cake often has a cinnamon-sugar topping. Additionally, crumb cake is usually baked in a 9x13 inch pan, while coffee cake is often baked in a bundt pan. No matter which cake you choose, you're sure to enjoy its delicious flavor and comforting texture.

Categories     Breakfast     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 stick butter (softened)
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
pinch salt
3/4 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter (softened)
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
5 tablespoon butter (softened)
3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350F.
  • In the bowl of a mixer, cream together the butter and sugar, scraping down the sides occasionally. Add the vanilla and egg, mix in.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add one half of it to the mixer, and when mostly combined, add the milk. Once the milk is mostly incorporated, add the rest of the flour.
  • To make filling: in a small bowl, pinch together the softened butter, flour, sugar and cinnamon until soft crumbs form.
  • To make topping: add the butter, flour, brown sugar and cinnamon to a food processor and pulse until coarse crumbs form (You can cut in with forks or a pastry cutter, but I am not patient enough for that!).
  • Grease a 9x9 baking pan. Pour in ½ of cake batter, and spread to all four corners. Sprinkle the filling over top, then pour in remaining cake batter, and spread carefully across the top, disturbing the filling layer as little as possible (an offset spatula works well for this).
  • Sprinkle the topping over the top and press lightly so it adheres.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool to warm on wire rack before serving.

CRUMB CAKE OR COFFEE CAKE WITH EASY STREUSEL TOPPING



Crumb Cake or Coffee Cake With Easy Streusel Topping image

I never seem to have butter softened to the right temperature when I want to make coffee cake, so I finally asked my mom for her recipe, and it doesn't require any softened butter, just oil, so it is a breeze to make. It is easy to get the consistency of the crumb topping just right. You could substitute other types of nuts if you wanted.
