How to Make Raspberry Or Blueberry Almond Coffee Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, gently combine 1 cup of fresh raspberries (or blueberries) and 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup plain yogurt, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 large egg.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour two-thirds of the batter into an 8-inch round cake pan coated with cooking spray.
  7. Spoon the raspberry (or blueberry) mixture evenly over the batter.
  8. Pour the remaining batter over the fruit mixture.
  9. Sprinkle 1/4 cup sliced almonds over the top.
  10. Bake for 40-45 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 transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  12. While the cake is cooling, whisk together 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
  13. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake and enjoy!
