Ingredients for Apple Ginger Streusel Coffee Cake

How to Make Apple Ginger Streusel Coffee Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine the peeled and diced apples, grated ginger, and brown sugar.
  6. Gently fold the apple mixture into the batter.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  8. For the streusel topping, combine the flour, brown sugar, oats, cinnamon, and melted butter in a bowl until crumbly.
  9. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter.
  10. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
