Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

Cake:
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, slightly cooled, plus more
1 1/4-ounce envelope active dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
2/3 cup (packed) light brown sugar, divided
1 large egg, room temperature
3 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1/2 cup sour cream, room temperature
2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest
1/3 cup fresh orange juice
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Streusel and assembly:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
1/3 cup (packed) light brown sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Kosher salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, slightly cooled
2 pounds firm baking apples (about 4 large), halved, cored, very thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons (or more) fresh orange juice

Steps:

  • Cake:
  • Butter a 13x9" shallow baking dish. Mix yeast, 2 Tbsp. brown sugar, and 1/4 cup warm water in the bowl of a stand mixer; let sit until it foams, about 5 minutes. Whisk in egg and remaining brown sugar, then stir in 1 cup flour and mix with a wooden spoon to incorporate. Sprinkle remaining 2 cups flour over top but do not mix in. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit in a warm, draft-free spot until mixture is visibly puffed and flour has cracks in places, 60-90 minutes.
  • Add sour cream, orange zest, orange juice, baking powder, and salt to mixture and mix on medium speed with dough hook until smooth, elastic, and just sticking to the sides of bowl, about 4 minutes. Add 6 Tbsp. butter in 2 additions, beating well between additions; beat until a soft, slightly glossy, sticky dough-batter hybrid forms, about 4 minutes.
  • Using buttered fingers, pat dough into prepared pan in an even layer, spreading to edges. Cover and let sit in a warm, draft-free spot until puffed and nearly doubled in size, 60-70 minutes.
  • Streusel and assembly:
  • Just before dough is finished rising, preheat oven to 350°F. Pulse flour, oats, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a food processor a few times to combine. Add butter and process in long pulses until streusel is the consistency of moist crumbs.
  • Working with several slices at a time, fan out apples slightly and arrange over dough, shingling rows in different directions; sprinkle streusel over top. Bake until apples are tender and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 35-45 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool.
  • Whisk powdered sugar, orange juice, and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl, adding more orange juice by the teaspoonful as needed, until icing is very thick and smooth and falls back onto itself in a slowly dissolving ribbon. Drizzle over coffee cake.

Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

Dough:
2 tablespoons warm water (105°F to 115°F)
1 package active dry yeast
1/2 cup whole milk
6 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, diced, room temperature
1 teaspoon salt
2 large egg yolks
1 teaspoon finely grated orange peel
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 to 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
Filling:
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
6 tablespoons (packed) golden brown sugar
1 1/4 pounds Golden Delicious apples (about 3 medium), peeled, cored, quartered, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices
1 teaspoon finely grated orange peel
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1/3 cup finely crumbled vanilla wafer cookies or soft ladyfingers
Glaze:
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons (or more) orange juice

Steps:

  • For dough:
  • Place 2 tablespoons warm water in small cup. Mix in yeast. Let stand until yeast dissolves, about 6 minutes.
  • Stir milk, sugar, butter, and salt in medium saucepan over medium-low heat just until sugar dissolves and butter melts (mixture should be just warm). Scrape milk mixture into large bowl; cool to lukewarm if necessary. Whisk in yeast mixture, egg yolks, orange peel, and spices. Add 2 cups flour; mix with rubber spatula until dough comes together. Turn dough out onto floured work surface. Knead until smooth and silky, sprinkling with more flour by tablespoonfuls as needed, about 6 minutes. Place in clean large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and kitchen towel. Place in warm draft-free area; let rise until light and almost doubled in volume, about 2 1/2 hours.
  • For filling:
  • Melt butter in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add brown sugar. Cook until thick grainy sauce forms, about 1 minute. Mix in apples. Cook until apples are tender and sauce is reduced to glaze, tossing often, about 7 minutes. Mix in all grated peel and spices. Cool filling at least 30 minutes and up to 3 hours.
  • Place large sheet of foil on work surface; spray with nonstick spray. Turn dough out onto foil. Roll out to 14x12-inch rectangle. Sprinkle cookie crumbs in 4-inch-wide strip down center, leaving 1/2-inch border at top and bottom. Arrange apples with any juices atop crumbs. Starting 1/2 inch from each long side of apples, cut straight to edge of dough at 1-inch intervals, making about 13 strips on each side. Fold dough strips alternately and on slight angle over filling, forming lattice. Seal open ends of dough.
  • Slide foil with dough onto large rimmed baking sheet; trim foil overhang. Cover cake loosely with plastic and towel. Place cake in warm draft-free area; let dough rise until light and puffy, about 1 3/4 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake cake uncovered until golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Gently run spatula under cake to loosen from foil. Cool 30 minutes.
  • For glaze:
  • Mix powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons orange juice in small bowl to blend, adding more juice by 1/2 teaspoonfuls if too thick. Drizzle glaze over cake. Cut crosswise into slices. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

YEASTED COFFEE CAKE



Yeasted Coffee Cake image

This recipe is gluten-free. However, it can also be prepared with regular all-purpose and bread flours if you prefer.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 packages active dry yeast (1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons)
1/4 cup warm water (100 to 110 degrees)
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large egg yolks
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup sour cream
1 2/3 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
1 cup gluten-free bread flour
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 cup raisins
1 cup golden raisins
1 cup slivered almonds, toasted
1/2 cup sugar
Zest of 2 oranges
Zest of 2 lemons
2 tablespoons orange liqueur
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 large egg, lightly beaten with 1 tablespoon heavy cream, for egg wash
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix together yeast and warm water; set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together butter and granulated sugar on medium speed, scraping down the sides of bowl with a spatula, as necessary. Add egg yolks, one at a time, mixing well after each addition and scraping down sides of bowl with a spatula as necessary.
  • Add vinegar and vanilla; mix to combine. Slowly add sour cream, mixing until well combined. Add yeast mixture.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together both flours and salt. Add to mixer and mix on low until well combined and dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl and just begins to form a ball.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead dough until smooth, about 5 minutes. Lightly flour the bottom of a large glass bowl; place dough in bowl and cover with a clean damp kitchen towel. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap; let stand until doubled in size, 3 to 4 hours, or refrigerate overnight.
  • Make the filling: Place all of the ingredients except egg and cream in a medium bowl and stir until well combined.
  • Punch down dough. Transfer to a floured work surface. Let stand for 5 minutes. Roll out to an 18-inch square (about 1/8 inch thick). Spread filling over dough, reserving 1/2 cup and leaving a 1-inch border. Brush edges with egg wash. Tightly roll dough like a jelly roll. Pinch seam to seal, and fold in half to bring ends together to form a U. Twist 2 or 3 times to "braid." Butter a 10-by-5-inch loaf pan, and line with parchment, leaving 1-inch overhangs; butter parchment. Transfer dough to pan. Brush top with egg wash.
  • Make the crumb topping: Combine confectioners' sugar, flour, and butter. Sprinkle topping and reserved 1/2 cup filling over cake.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Drape plastic wrap over dough. Let stand in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • Remove plastic wrap, and bake, rotating halfway through, until golden, about 55 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees. Bake until deeply golden, 20 to 30 minutes more (cover with foil if top gets too dark). Transfer pan to a wire rack. Let cake cool.

Tips:

  • Use fresh apples. Fresh apples will give your coffee cake the best flavor and texture. If you don't have fresh apples, you can use frozen or canned apples, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Peel and core your apples before you grate them. This will make it easier to grate the apples and it will also help to prevent the apples from browning.
  • Grate your apples just before you add them to the batter. This will help to prevent the apples from oxidizing and turning brown.
  • Use a combination of spices in your coffee cake batter. This will give your coffee cake a more complex flavor. Some good spices to use include cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your coffee cake tough.
  • Bake your coffee cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that your coffee cake is cooked all the way through.
  • Let your coffee cake cool before you serve it. This will help the flavors to meld and the cake to set.

Conclusion:

Yeasted apple coffee cake is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch treat. With its tender crumb, sweet and tangy apples, and buttery streusel topping, this coffee cake is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a special breakfast or brunch recipe, give this yeasted apple coffee cake a try. You won't be disappointed!
