The Ultimate Crumb Coffee Cake

May 14, 2013 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 16 Comments

Good morning! I hope that your weekend and your Mother’s Day was relaxing and filled with family. My weekend was very nice; time with my husband and pup reading and leisurely time listening to the rain.

I am getting ready for visitors in a few weeks and am looking for new recipes. One of the things I  like to make is coffee cake. I want something that is delicious, easy and of course has a buttery crumb topping. 

As with most of the recipes I find lately this one came from Pinterest.  The Ultimate Crumb Lovers Coffee Cake is moist, spicy, and has a crunchy, buttery crumb topping. 

Ultimate Crumb Lovers Coffee Cake

Recipe from Big Oven

Ingredients

4 cups of flour

1/2 tsp salt

1 cup of sugar

1 cup packed brown sugar

2 Tablespoons of cinnamon

2 sticks chilled unsalted butter

6 tablespoons unsalted butter

1/2 tsp. ginger

1/2 tsp. nutmeg

1/4 tsp. ground cloves

1 tsp. baking soda

1 cup of buttermilk

1 egg

2 tsp. vanilla

1. Preheat over to 350. Prepare a 9 x 13 inch pan with cooking spray and set aside.

2. Cube butter and add to flour and salt. Mix with a pastry blender until you have incorporated the butter and have medium to fine crumbs.

3. Add brown sugar and white sugar and cinnamon and mix well.

4. Take 4 cups of the flour mixture and place in a separate bowl. Add the melted butter to the separated flour mixture and mix to form crumb topping.

5. To the remaining flour mixture, add the ginger, nutmeg, cloves, then add the buttermilk and egg. Beat with an electric mixer until batter is smooth. The batter will be thick.

6. Spread batter into prepared pan and then sprinkle with crumbs.

7. Bake 40-45 minutes until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

9. Cool completely on wire rack.

I know that many of you are dieting but make sure to “bookmark” this recipe for a later date, it is scrumptious and I think will become a favorite. 

Have a fabulous week!

    Good morning sweet Elizabeth! Now this is a lovely weekend. I too spent it with my husband, perusing the garden shops and coming home with herbs for my pots. We then hauled a granite table out to the yard and it is HEAVEN on earth for me! Today is a decent day so I'm going out there to plant! Enjoy your day; I hope it's warm out your way! Anita

    Good Morning Elizabeth:) Your coffee cake looks delicious and sounds so good on the overcast-rainy Seattle morning. I've got 5 birthdays and my daughters graduation coming up in June…… so I will need LOTS of these kinds of recipes for house guests.

This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life through the blur of tears and sorrow. Sunday night my friend of 34 years lost her husband of 36 years, because of Covid he did not get to meet or hold his newborn grandson. Then just an hour ago we received a call that my husbands best friend died of a massive heart attack this morning. Sometimes life just knocks you to your knees and all you can do is pray for the  loved ones you’ve lost, cherish their memories and let your time with them sustain you until you meet again. Then you ask God for the strength to get up and move forward. #life #loss #givemestrength #givemestrengthlord #pray
Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping up from the ground, bright and colorful flowers in the garden center the weather and the calendar tell me otherwise. So I am hunkering down and taking solace inside enjoying the details of a collected home and life. This tapestry is a piece that we purchased over 25 years ago in Paris, it hang in the dining room and makes me smile every time I see it because it reminds me of such a happy and beautiful place. What do you collect? What brings you joy in your home? #collectedhome #collectedlook #homedecor #myhome #homesweethome #interiordesign #frenchprovincial #france #frenchdecor #tapestry #instahome #instahomedecor #acolectedlife #collection
Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. How is it in your “neck of the woods?” We took a long road-trip a few weeks ago to the beautiful @colonialwmsburg . I love this place, there is so much to see and do and even wearing masks and social distancing you can still enjoy the history and the beauty of this living museum. Today I am home doing the weekend chores, and of course doing a little baking. I hope that you have a fabulous weekend. #colonialwilliamsburg #williamsburg #colonialhouse #livinghistory #livinghistorymuseum #museum #winterfun #roadtrip #wanderlust #weekend #weekendvibes #weekendmood
