How to Make Cherry Streusel Coffee Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream and milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the cherries.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  8. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, oats, cinnamon, and butter for the streusel topping. Mix with your fingers or a pastry blender 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 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
