My mother gave me this recipe when I was a teenager - it's something I treasure as a childhood memory. She made this tender, flaky pastry as part of a special breakfast on Sundays or holidays. I often bring these easy-to-fix pastries to ladies' meetings. They can't believe how good they taste with relatively few ingredients. -Lee Deneau, Lansing, Michigan

Provided by Kaleb

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 cups flour
¼ cup cornstarch
1 ½ cups sugar
2 ½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
8 tbsp unsalted butter (room temperature)
½ cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
2 egg yolks
1 cup milk
2 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup sour cream
1 cup toasted pecans (chopped)
½ cup sugar
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 cup sifted powdered sugar
½ tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract
1-2 tbsp milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a bundt pan with baking spray and set it aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the flour, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix on low speed for 30 seconds to combine. Add the room temperature butter 1 tbsp at a time and allow each piece to incorporate before adding the next, 2-3 minutes, until the mixture looks like wet sand. Add the oil and mix on low.
  • In a large measuring glass, combine the eggs, yolks, milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine. With the mixer on low speed, add half of the wet mixture to the mixer. Mix for 1 minute and add the sour cream. Continue to mix for 1 minute, then add the remaining milk mixture. Mix until just combined, 1 minute, and turn the mixer off.
  • In a small bowl, combine ¾ cup of toasted pecans, ½ cup of sugar, and the cinnamon. Stir to combine. Pour roughly ¾ of the batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Sprinkle about ¾ of the sugar mixture on top. Repeat with the remaining batter and sugar mixture. Use a knife inserted all the way to the bottom of the pan and make figure-eight patterns to combine the sugar and batter slightly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cake is golden and a skewer inserted in the middle comes out mostly clean, 45-55 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven and cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then invert on a cooling rack for 40 minutes to finish cooling.
  • While cooling, combine the powdered sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and milk. Whisk until smooth and drizzle over the cooled cake. Top with the remaining nuts and serve.

GRANDMA DONNIE'S BLUEBERRY COFFEE CAKE



Grandma Donnie's Blueberry Coffee Cake image

A family recipe for at least 60 years, likely taken from the newspaper. Moist and loaded with blueberries. There is never any left over. Give it a try!

Provided by Allrecipes

Time 1h

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup white sugar
¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
½ cup milk
2 cups frozen blueberries
1 tablespoon white sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a 9x9-inch cake pan.
  • Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • Cream sugar, butter, and vanilla together in another bowl. Add egg and beat well.
  • Using a wooden spoon, stir in dry ingredients in 3 additions alternately with the milk (ending with dry) just until flour is incorporated. Do not overbeat. Fold in blueberries. Turn into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly with a spatula. Frozen blueberries make dough very stiff, so pressing with moistened fingertips works better for me. Combine 1 tablespoon sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl; sprinkle on top of batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
