How to Make Banana Coffee Cake With Chocolate Chip Streusel
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8x2-inch metal baking pan.
- Make the streusel: In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Cut in 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time.
- In a separate bowl, mash 3 very ripe bananas. Add the mashed bananas and 1 cup buttermilk to the creamed butter mixture. Mix until just combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with half of the streusel topping.
- Pour the remaining batter over the streusel, and top with the remaining streusel.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, loosely tent with foil.
- Let the coffee cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before serving.
