    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350° F. and spray an 8x8 baking pan with cooking spray.

Coffee Cake
  1. In a large bowl whisk together the egg and egg yolk. Add in the milk, Greek yogurt, oil, vanilla, and orange zest and whisk until smooth and combined.
  2. In a separate bowl whisk together the flours, sugars, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Pour the dry ingredients in with the wet and stir together until just combined. Fold in the cranberries.
  3. Take approximately 2 cups of the batter and add it to the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle a 1/4 cup of the streusel evenly over the batter. Pour the remaining batter on top of the streusel and spread it into an even layer. Top with the remaining streusel.
  4. Place the coffee cake on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with a few crumbs attached, but no wet batter. Let the coffee cake cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes before serving. You can also serve it at room temperature after it's cooled completely.
