How to Make Cinnamon Coffee Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened shortening and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 3 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- In a small bowl, combine 1 cup milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients alternately to the creamed mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- In a small bowl, combine ½ cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon.
- Pour one-third of the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Sprinkle with one-third of the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Repeat layers twice more, ending with a layer of batter.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
