This classic coffee cake uses the same sweet, crumbly mixture in the batter and as a topping to intensify this dessert's cinnamon-sugar flavor.

Ingredients

  • 2 c. all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 3/4 c. packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 c. cold unsalted butter
  • 1/2 c. walnuts
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 c. cold coffee

Directions

  1. 1

    Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly coat an 8- by 2-inch round cake pan with cooking spray. Line the bottom with parchment paper; spray the paper.

  2. 2

    In a food processor, combine the flour, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder. Add the brown sugar and pulse to combine.

  3. 3

    Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse bread crumbs. Transfer 1/2 cup of the mixture to a small bowl, toss with the walnuts and set aside.

  4. 4

    Add the egg and coffee to the food processor and pulse just to combine. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle the walnut mixture over the top and bake until a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
