Banana Coffee Cake
A soft banana coffee cake with a cinnamon sugar center.
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 eggs
- 2 C. All-purpose flour
- 1/2 C. Maple syrup or honey
- 1/4 C. Sour Cream
- 1/2 C. Oil
- 1/2 C. Milk
- 1 tsp. Baking soda
- 2 tsp. Baking powder
- 1 tsp. Vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp. Salt
Cinnamon sugar center and topping:
- 5 Tbsp. Butter cubed
- 1/2 C. Brown sugar
- 3/4 C. All-purpose flour
- 1 Tbsp. Cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- To make the banana coffee cake, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Whisk until combined and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the bananas. Mash completely. Add in the eggs, sour cream, maple syrup, oil, milk, vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer or whisk, mix until fully combined.
- Pour the flour mixture into the wet ingredients and stir until just mixed. It is ok if there are still some lumps.
- To make the cinnamon sugar center and topping, combine the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt together. Add in the cold cubed butter. Using a pastry cutter (or fork), cut the butter into the cinnamon sugar mixture. Continue to mix until it resembles sand like texture.
- Pour half of the batter into a 9 inch round pie dish or 9 inch square baking pan. Divide the cinnamon sugar mixture in half and evenly sprinkle over the batter. Top with remaining batter and spread out with a spatula. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture on top.
- Place in the oven and bake for 28-35 minutes, or until the batter is set and a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool slightly and enjoy!
