Instructions:
-
Preparation: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a long flat pan, ensuring it’s well prepared for your delicious cake.
-
Mixing the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Mix well until evenly incorporated. Add in the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
-
Preparing the Filling: In a separate bowl, prepare the filling by mixing together the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and chopped black walnuts. This mixture will add a delightful layer of sweetness and crunch to your coffee cake.
-
Layering the Cake: Spread half of the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle half of the filling mixture over the batter, ensuring it’s distributed evenly across the surface.
-
Adding More Layers: Pour the remaining batter over the filling layer, spreading it carefully to cover the entire surface. Sprinkle the remaining filling on top, evenly distributing the mixture for a balanced flavor in every bite.
-
Finishing Touch: Melt the butter and drizzle it over the top of the cake batter and filling. This will add richness and moisture to your coffee cake, ensuring a deliciously tender texture.
-
Baking: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 35 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Serving: Once baked to perfection, allow the coffee cake to cool slightly before slicing and serving. This delectable treat is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or any time you crave a comforting slice of homemade goodness.
