Instructions:
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan:
- Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC). Grease and flour a 9×9-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper, and set aside.
- Prepare Apple Filling:
- In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the diced apples, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- Make Streusel Topping:
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon for the streusel topping. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
- Prepare Cake Batter:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- Mix in the sour cream (or Greek yogurt) until smooth, then gradually add the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, and mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Assemble the Cake:
- Spread half of the cake batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing it out into an even layer.
- Spread the cooked apple filling evenly over the batter.
- Dollop the remaining cake batter over the apple filling and carefully spread it out into an even layer.
- Add Streusel Topping:
- Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the top of the cake batter.
- Bake the Cake:
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve:
- Allow the apple fritter coffee cake to cool in the pan for at least 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving.
- Enjoy:
- Serve slices of the warm apple fritter coffee cake with a cup of coffee or tea, and enjoy the delicious blend of flavors and textures with every bite!
