Ingredients
- STREUSEL
- 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts (or pecans)
- CAKE
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 cups sour cream (I've used yogurt)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
How to Make
-
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 F.
-
Step 2: Grease a 9-inch square pan.
-
Step 3: For the streusel, combine the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon and stir in the melted butter until evenly combined. Stir in the nuts. Set aside.
-
Step 4: Cake
-
Step 5: For the cake, sift the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda and allspice.
-
Step 6: In a separate bowl whisk the melted butter, sugar, sour cream, eggs and vanilla. Stir into the flour mixture until evenly blended.
-
Step 7: Spread half of the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle half of the streusel on top. Using a knife, swirl the streusel into the batter just a little. Top with the remaining batter, spread and then top the cake with the remaining streusel, giving the cake another little swirl.
-
Step 8: Bake for 45 to 55 minutes or until a tester inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean.
-
Step 9: Cool the cake in the pan to room temperature before slicing.
