Make-Ahead Coffee Cake
Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 (8 ounce) carton sour cream
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
1
Preheat the baking pan by coating it with a generous amount of grease and then covering it evenly with flour, resulting in a perfectly prepared 9x13-inch baking pan.
2
Using an electric mixer, combine the softened butter and white sugar in a bowl until they have merged into a smooth, airy mixture that is light and fluffy, taking approximately 2 minutes to achieve this.
3
Next, incorporate the eggs and sour cream into the butter mixture using the electric mixer, blending them together until a smooth consistency is obtained.
4
In a separate bowl, thoroughly combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt until they are fully incorporated. Then, add the dry ingredients to the sour cream mixture, stirring until a uniform batter is formed.
5
Pour the prepared batter into the greased and floured baking pan, filling it to the brim.
6
In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar, pecans, and cinnamon until they are well combined. Then, sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter in the baking pan.
7
Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 8 hours, or overnight if desired.
8
Preheat the oven to a temperature of 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), as specified in the original recipe.
9
Remove the plastic wrap from the dish and bake it until a toothpick inserted into the center of the coffee cake comes out clean, taking approximately 35 to 40 minutes.
