For a richer flavor, use brown butter in the batter. Simply melt the butter and continue cooking until the milk solids turn golden brown and the butter has a nutty aroma. Let cool slightly before using. To prevent the walnuts from burning, you can add them to the streusel mixture halfway through the baking time. This coffee cake is best served warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x13 inch baking pan. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar evenly across the bottom of the prepared pan. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, walnuts, softened butter, flour, and cinnamon for the streusel topping. Use a fork or your fingertips to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (10 minutes)
03
StepIn a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. (3 minutes)
04
StepIn another bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the eggs until light and frothy. Gradually add the granulated sugar and melted butter, beating until smooth and creamy. Stir in the milk, sour cream, and vanilla extract until well combined. (7 minutes)
05
StepGradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)
06
StepSpread half of the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle half of the streusel topping over the batter. Spread the remaining batter over the streusel layer, and then sprinkle with the remaining streusel. (5 minutes)
07
StepBake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. (30 minutes)
08
StepLet the coffee cake cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
