Tips:

  • Start with cold butter: Cold butter is easier to work with and will help to create a more flaky coffee cake.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender coffee cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Use sour cream or buttermilk in the batter: These ingredients will help to add moisture and richness to the coffee cake.
  • Fold in the dry ingredients gradually: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough coffee cake.
  • Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan: This will help to ensure that the coffee cake bakes evenly.
  • Sprinkle the top of the coffee cake with streusel topping before baking: This will give the coffee cake a delicious crunchy topping.
  • Bake the coffee cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the coffee cake is cooked through.
  • Let the coffee cake cool completely before serving: This will help to prevent the coffee cake from falling apart.
