Cinnabon Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake
Description
This recipe creates a coffee cake inspired by the flavors of a cinnamon roll. The base batter combines flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter, producing a tender, moist cake once baked. The topping is a mixture of softened butter, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon scattered evenly over the batter and gently swirled to create a cinnamon swirl effect throughout the cake.
Baked at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes, the cake develops a golden crust around soft, cinnamon-spiked areas. Once cooled slightly, it is drizzled with a vanilla-based icing made from powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract, adding a sweet finishing touch that melts into the cake’s surface.
This coffee cake works well for breakfast or an afternoon treat, combining the familiar elements of cinnamon rolls in a less labor-intensive cake form.
