How to Make Coffee House Coffee Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. Make the crumb topping: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour, ½ cup (100g) packed light brown sugar, ½ cup (113g) softened unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Mix until it resembles moist crumbs.
  3. Stir in ½ cup (50g) chopped pecans.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks, 227g) unsalted butter, ¾ cup (150g) packed light brown sugar, and ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  8. Stir in 1 cup (240ml) milk.
  9. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
  10. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the batter.
  11. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the edges are lightly golden brown.
  12. Let the coffee cake cool completely in the pan before serving.
