Coffee Cake With Sour Cream And Walnuts

Ingredients

This coffee cake with sour cream and walnuts is a delicious, moist and perfect cake for any special occasion. To make this coffee cake, you will need the following ingredients: one cup of all-purpose flour, one teaspoon of baking powder, one-half teaspoon of baking soda, one-quarter teaspoon of salt, one-half cup of softened butter, one cup of white sugar, two eggs, one teaspoon of vanilla extract, one cup of sour cream, one-half cup of chopped walnuts, and one-half cup of brown sugar.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 9-inch round cake pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. Gradually beat in the flour mixture until just combined. Fold in the sour cream and walnuts until evenly distributed. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle with the brown sugar. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Serving

Once the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve the cake plain, or dust with powdered sugar. For extra flavor, you can top with a drizzle of melted butter, maple syrup or a dollop of whipped cream. This coffee cake is delicious served warm, at room temperature or chilled.
