Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Streusel: 1/2 cup flour, 1/2 cup chopped pecans, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 4 tablespoons cold butter
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch square baking pan.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt for the maple pecan streusel coffee cake recipe.
Step 3: In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with the granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy.
Step 4: Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the maple syrup, sour cream, and vanilla extract.
Step 5: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to ensure a tender maple pecan streusel coffee cake recipe.
Step 6: Prepare the streusel by cutting the cold butter into the flour, pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon until crumbly.
Step 7: Pour half the batter into the pan, sprinkle with half the streusel, then layer the remaining batter and top with the rest of the streusel.
Step 8: Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the maple pecan streusel coffee cake recipe comes out clean.
Step 9: Allow the cake to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
Ensure all cold ingredients are at room temperature for the best emulsion in the batter.
