Weekend Coffee Cake Crumble Recipes

WEEKEND COFFEE CAKE CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly spray a loaf pan with cooking spray then line with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, cover the minced prunes with boiling water for 15 minutes. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
• Meanwhile, in another small bowl make the crumb topping. Whisk the brown sugar and granulated sugar together. Then add the cinnamon, ginger, and salt. Pour in the melted butter then mix until combined. Use a spoon to stir in the flour in 3 separate additions, until the flour is completely incorporated. It will seem like there is too much flour, but just keep working it and it will come together. Place in the refrigerator.
• In another small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• Cream together the granulated sugar and softened butter with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla bean paste and beat until combined. Add the sour cream, incorporate completely. Lastly, incorporate the flour and the milk until completely combined and the batter is smooth.
• Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan spreading to the edges and soothing the top with a spatula. Sprinkle the soaked and drained prunes over the top of the batter evenly. Crumble the crumb topping over the top.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with only a few crumbs. Cool for 15 -20 minutes before removing from the pan. Slice and serve or store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
