How to Make Luscious Lemon Coffee Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan.
  2. **Make the Crumble Topping:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup packed brown sugar, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Set aside half of the crumble topping.
  4. **Make the Cake Batter:** In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Add 1 cup sour cream, 3 large eggs, ½ cup vegetable oil, and 2 teaspoons lemon extract to the dry ingredients.
  6. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes, or until well combined.
  7. Pour half of the batter into the prepared bundt pan.
  8. Sprinkle half of the reserved crumble topping evenly over the batter.
  9. Pour the remaining batter over the topping and spread evenly.
  10. Sprinkle the remaining crumble topping over the batter.
  11. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
