Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Coffee Cake

  1. In small bowl, mix together plant milk and vinegar. Set aside.
  2. While buttermilk sits, preheat oven to 350°F
  3. In medium bowl, whisk together gluten-free 1:1 baking flour, oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set Aside.
  4. In large bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, sugar, and melted plant butter until homogenous.
  5. Add half of the dry ingredients and whisk until everything is combined. Repeat with remaining dry ingredients and whisk until there are no lumps.
  6. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula and make sure all dry ingredients are incorporated. Set aside and begin preparing the filling and the crumble topping.

Filling

  1. Add brown sugar and cinnamon to a small to medium sized bowl.
  2. Mix with a fork until the sugar and cinnamon are thoroughly combined.
  3. Set aside and begin preparing the crumble topping using the steps below.

Crumble Topping

  1. In a medium bowl, add brown and white sugar, flour, , cinnamon, and salt.
  2. Mix with a fork until dry ingredients are combined.
  3. Add softened butter to the bowl and use a fork to press the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles a dampened sand-like texture. (You may also use a whisk to do this, but make sure to remove the crumble that sticks inside the whisk's wire loops and repeat this process a couple times until the texture is reached).
  4. Set aside and resume making the coffee cake using the steps below.

Coffee Cake (Continued)

  1. Line baking dish with parchment paper horizontally and vertically. Then grease parchment paper with either non-stick spray or butter/oil.
  2. Pour in half of the coffee cake batter into the lined and greased baking dish.
  3. Spread outage cinnamon sugar filling into an even layer.
  4. Carefully pour the remaining batter into an even layer over the cinnamon sugar filling.
  5. Starting at a corner the baking dish, take a butter knife and make horizontally and then vertically into the batter. Do this by pressing the butter knife 3/4 of the way into the batter and move all the way down to the corner on the same side of the baking dish, move to the knife in a half circle motion to the right about 2 inches and then move upwards to the end of the baking dish parallel to the first line. Repeat this process until you reach the other two corners of the baking dish. Then repeat the entire process horizontally so that the swivels intersect and are perpendicular to each other.
  6. Using clean hands or a spoon, sprinkle the crumble topping over the top of the batter in an even layer.
  7. Place on a baking sheet for easy mobility and place the oven for 1 hour and 50 minutes.
  8. After 45 minutes, loosely cover the baking dish with tinfoil leaving room for the coffee cake to rise without touching the tinfoil. Bake for remaining time, checking with a toothpick every 5 minutes starting at the one hour mark.
  9. The coffee cake is ready once a toothpick comes out clean, or with large crumbs out from the center of the cake.
  10. Let cool before cutting.

Drizzle (optional)

  1. Mix together powdered sugar, plant milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Continue to stir while adding powder sugar until it reaches the consistently slightly thicker than glue.
  2. Pour glaze over cooled cake. Let glaze set, or dive in!
