Ingredients

1 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar or 1 1/4 cups dark brown sugar
3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup cold butter, cut in small pieces
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped (you can toast them too, if desired)
1 1/2 cups butter, softened
1 1/2 cups maple syrup
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar or 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
7 large eggs, at room temperature
4 1/2 cups flour

Steps:

Preheat oven to 325*F.
Lightly grease 10" tube pan.
STREUSEL: In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, butter, and cinnamon with a fork until crumbly.
Stir in the walnuts.
POUNDCAKE: Using an electric mixer on high speed, cream together the butter, pancake syrup, brown sugar, vanilla, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl until well blended (the mixture will look curdled).
Add the eggs, one at a time, blending well after each addition (the mixture will still look curdled).
With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour, beating just until blended and smooth.
Spoon 1/2 the batter into the prepared pan; sprinkle with 1/2 the streusel.
Cover with remaining batter and streusel.
Bake for 75-85 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs clinging to it.
Cool in pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes; loosen edges of cake from sides of pan.
Carefully invert onto a wire rack; cool completely.
Store wrapped airtight at room temperature for up to 3 days.

I'm not a huge fan of coffee cake, but this recipe changed my mind. The streusel topping is the perfect balance of sweet and crunchy, and the cake itself is moist and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.
