Ingredients

Batter:

Dry Ingredients

1 1/2 cup flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

1/2 cup butter melted
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 large eggs beaten
1 cup sour cream

Middle Crumb & Topping

1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Mix the crumble ingredients together and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, add all the the wet ingredients together and mix with electric mixer until well blended. Add in dry ingredients little by little until well blended.
Use an 8 or 9” springform pan or a bundt pan. Butter and flour your pan of choice.
Add a thin layer of batter to the bottom. Next add a thin layer of crumble.
Add a second layer of batter. It's not essential that the second layer of batter cover the entire first layer, don't worry.
Finish by using all the extra crumble and sprinkling all the topping.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Be careful not to overbake or the coffee cake may become dry. Bake just until the center is set.

Notes

Note: You can add different nuts according to your preference. You can increase the amount of crumble if desired. You can also try different spices like adding a bit of nutmeg or allspice. Another fun variety would be to try almond extract instead of vanilla.
