Easy Cinnamon Coffee Cake Recipe
Description
This cinnamon coffee cake starts with a batter mixing all-purpose flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Wet ingredients include milk, eggs, and vanilla extract combined separately before mixing into the dry mixture. Melted butter is stirred in last to enrich the cake. The batter is poured into a greased 9x13-inch pan.
A streusel top made from brown sugar and cinnamon is sprinkled evenly over the batter before baking at 350°F for about 30 minutes until cooked through. The topping caramelizes slightly during baking, providing texture contrast.
Once cool, a glaze made by combining powdered sugar, vanilla, and water is poured over the cake, adding moisture and sweetness. This cake offers a soft, tender crumb with aromatic cinnamon flavor throughout and a sweet, slightly crunchy topping. It pairs well with coffee or tea for breakfast or a snack.
