Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake
Description
The cake starts with a mix of flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder combined with milk, eggs, and vanilla. Melted unsalted butter adds moisture and richness. After mixing, the batter is poured into a greased rectangular cake pan.
A cinnamon and brown sugar mixture is spread and swirled into the batter before baking at 350°F for about 30 minutes, allowing the cinnamon to infuse the cake. After cooling, a glaze made of powdered sugar, vanilla, and water is poured over the top, forming a harder coating reminiscent of a cinnamon roll icing.
This cake offers a moist, tender crumb with cinnamon-sugar ribbons and a sweet finish. It pairs well with coffee for breakfast or a comforting snack.
