Coffee Cake
1
|
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9-inch cake pan with parchment paper. I used a large piece of parchment paper, leaving the edges sticking out for easy removal.
2
|
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3
|
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and brown sugar on high speed until smooth and light for about 2 minutes.
4
|
Add the eggs in one at a time, beating between each addition.
5
|
Add the buttermilk and vanilla, and mix until fully combined.
6
|
Add the dry ingredients, and mix until just combined.
7
|
Pour half of the batter into the prepared cake pan, then sprinkle the chai cinnamon swirl around evenly. Pour the rest of the batter on top and gently spread out evenly with a rubber spatula.
8
|
Bake the cake for 25 minutes. Then, remove and quickly add the streusel topping, gently pressing it into the top of the cake.
9
|
Bake the cake for another 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
10
|
Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before removing and glazing.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Toast Your Spices First 🌟Lightly toast the cardamom, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding to the batter to intensify their chai flavors and eliminate any staleness.
- Brown Your Streusel Butter 🧈Brown the butter for the streusel topping until nutty and fragrant, then cool slightly before mixing—this adds rich depth that elevates the oatmeal cookie-like texture.
- Room Temperature Ingredients Matter 🌡️Bring eggs, buttermilk, and butter to room temperature before mixing to ensure a tender, evenly-textured crumb and better emulsification with the wet ingredients.
- Don't Overmix the Batter 🥄Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined—overmixing develops gluten and creates a dense, tough cake rather than the desired tender crumb.
- Strategic Streusel Layering 📍Divide your streusel topping into two portions—press half into the batter, then sprinkle the remainder on top before baking to create pockets of cinnamon-sugar texture throughout.
