Crumb Coffee Cake With Peach Preserves Recipes

Steps:

• For the crumb topping: Put the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl and stir to combine. Add the butter and mix thoroughly with your fingers or a fork until all of the butter has been evenly distributed and incorporated into the flour. Form into small to medium clumps with your fingers.
• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8-inch square cake pan.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a small bowl.
• Beat together the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour, beating until just incorporated.
• Spoon half of the cake batter (it will be very thick) into the prepared pan and smooth with an offset spatula. Dollop the peach preserves on top and carefully smooth with the spatula. Spoon the remaining cake batter on top and smooth the top. Sprinkle on the crumb topping.
• Bake until the cake and topping are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool in the pan 20 minutes, then invert onto a plate; invert back onto a rack to cool completely.
• For the glaze: When the cake is cool, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and lemon juice and zest in a medium bowl until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cake and let set.

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 9-inch square metal baking pan with cooking spray. Fold a 17-inch length of heavy-duty foil to 8 1/2 inches wide and fit in the pan bottom and up 2 sides, so you can use the foil overhang as a handle to pull the baked cake from the pan.
• Topping: Use hands to thoroughly mix ingredients in a medium bowl, pressing together to form large clumps; set aside.
• Cream cheese filling: Beat cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer until thoroughly mixed. Beat in egg and vanilla until smooth; set aside.
• Cake: Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer set on medium-high until light and fluffy. Beat in egg until smooth. Beat in half the dry ingredients, then the remaining yogurt. Beat until ingredients are fully incorporated.
• Spread batter evenly over prepared pan. Spread cream cheese filling over batter. Dollop fruit filling (or sprinkle chocolate chips) over cream cheese filling. Finally, sprinkle evenly with crumble topping, pressing on it lightly to adhere.
• Bake until batter is fully set and topping is golden brown, about 45 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes. Run a thin-bladed knife around the sides, then use foil handles to pull cake from pan onto the wire rack. Cool to room temperature and serve. Can be covered with foil and stored at room temperature for one day.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease and lightly flour a 2-part 10-inch tube pan.
• Combine flour, sugar, butter, and salt in a large bowl; stir with a fork or pastry knife to blend all ingredients. Measure 1 cup of the flour-butter mixture and set aside. Add baking powder and baking soda to the large bowl, and stir well.
• Whisk buttermilk, egg, and vanilla together in a second bowl. Add wet ingredients to the flour mixture and stir, briskly, with a whisk, until mixture is very smooth and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Spoon batter into prepared pan, smoothing and leveling the top.
• Warm peach preserves in the microwave or in a small pot and smash any large fruit pieces. Spoon warm preserves on top of the batter.
• Combine reserved flour-butter mixture, chopped almonds, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle crumbs evenly on top of the preserves.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
• Transfer pan to a rack and cool for about 10 minutes. Remove the outer part of the tube pan and continue cooling, about 10 minutes. Slide a knife around the bottom of the cake to loosen from the pan. Using a spatula in each hand, lift the cake from the tube portion of the pan and place on a serving plate. Serve warm.
