How to Make Apple Coffee Cake With Crumble Topping And Brown Sugar Glaze
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking dish.
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add 3 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup sour cream and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in 4 cups peeled and diced apples.
- Pour batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
- For the crumble topping: Combine ½ cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup packed brown sugar, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Mix with your fingers or a pastry blender until crumbly.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the cake batter.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Add more milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake and let it set before serving.
