A chilly Autumn morning, fresh coffee and... coffee cake.
This is a recipe I found years ago for a coffee cake but I made it into a loaf bread which was similar to the flavor and texture of Entenmann's. I love to serve this bread to family and friends because not only is it awesome, but if I don't? I'll eat the whole loaf myself within two days!
Coffee Cake
Like Entenmann's
3 3/4 c flour
1 3/4 c sugar
1 T baking powder
1/2 t salt
Mix in a large mixing bowl and then remove 2 cups of the dry mix to reserve for later.
To the rest of the flour in the mixing bowl add;
1 stick butter (not margarine)
2 eggs
2/3 milk
The batter will be thick, spoon and spread this into a greased and floured pan (I use a little of the reserved flour topping mix to flour the pan).
To the reserved flour mixture add;
1 stick butter
1/4 c brown sugar
2 t cinnamon
dash of salt
Mix this together with your finger tips until it forms pea sized crumbles. Cover the entire coffee cake with this topping. If you chose to use a cake pan you'll use all the topping, a loaf pan like I do, you will only use half the topping. Freeze the rest in a baggy to use on muffins at a later date!
Bake at 350 degrees at least 60 minutes until a sharp knife inserted into the center comes out clean.. In my oven it takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
