This coffee cake is a favorite for breakfast or brunch. I've also taken it to potlucks and served it as dessert. Tender slices feature an appealing crunchy filling. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1-1/2 cups sugar |
3 eggs |
1 teaspoon each almond, lemon and vanilla extract |
2-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream |
filling: |
1/3 cup chopped pecans |
3 tablespoons sugar |
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon |
glaze: |
1 cup confectioners' sugar |
2 tablespoons milk |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in extracts. Combine the flour, baking powder and baking soda; add to creamed mixture alternately with sour cream. 2. Spread half of the batter in a greased and floured 10-in. fluted tube pan. Make a well in the center of the batter. Combine filling ingredients; sprinkle into well. Carefully cover with remaining batter. 3. Bake at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Combine glaze ingredients; drizzle over warm cake. Yield: 16 servings. |
