Sour Cream Coffee Cake is wonderfully moist, has a delicious streusel topping, and super easy to make!
I really wish you could smell and taste this delicious coffee cake right now! Oh, it smells amazing! One of my mom’s best desserts was this moist and tasty Sour Cream Coffee Cake.
Peaches and blueberries are in season right now, so I decided to use them! Cut up the peaches into small pieces and place in a bowl with blueberries. If you prefer, cut up two apples (Macoun, Granny Smith, or Macintosh) into small pieces and toss with a little cinnamon (maybe 1 teaspoon) and add to your cake batter.
You’ll need a few loaf pans. Order here if you need.
These paper loaf pan liners are amazing! No need for spraying cooking spray on your pans. Just plop these babies into your loaf pans and you’ll easily remove the coffee cakes, banana bread, and any yeast bread you bake.
How do I make streusel topping?
Simply add the ingredients to a bowl and press together with your fingers to combine. Add the desired amount of cinnamon to your liking.
How do I make a coffee cake with a streusel topping?
Step 1: Cream together the sugar and butter. Be sure and scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula.
Step 2: Add the vanilla, eggs, and sour cream.
Step 3: Add half of the flour and combine. Add the remaining flour and baking powder and mix until combined.
Step 4: Fold in the blueberries and peaches.
Step 5: Divide the batter evenly between three lined loaf pans.
Step 6: Spread the streusel topping evenly over the coffee cake batter.
Step 7: Place the loaf pans onto a half sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Place the cakes into a preheated 350 degree F oven and bake for 60 minutes. Test the cakes. They are done when a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean. Let cool for 20 minutes before removing from loaf pans.

I would eat so much of this. I’ve always been a fan of coffee cake! Yours looks so scrumptious.
This looks so good! I will have to give this a try!
That crumb topping is what makes a coffee cake so yummy. I love the choices of fruit in this cake.
Oh, yes! And I’m going to use that streussel topping for some other recipes, too!
Absolutely!! This Streusel Topping is perfect for my blueberry muffins, and even on PIES! (instead of the top crust)
This sounds delicious! Now I have to go to the grocery store and get the ingredients
The way you explained this cake recipe, seems very simple and doable. Going to try this very soon.
WOW, I didn’t know that streusel is so easy to make. I used to make coffee cake but I don’t add twists to it like these ones. I think, I NEED to try this wonderful recipe. Thanks a lot!
Streusel is super easy to make and will store in a freezer safe Ziploc bag nicely in the fridge or freezer. The bag keeps all the smells from your fridge out of the streusel (like onions).
This looks delicious! I love that you have the pan liners, I didn’t know those were a thing. I need some!
Rebecca,

Have you ever doubled the topping and put half of it in the middle instead of the fruit? I’m not crazy about the fruit snd think it might just be pretty good!!
You can certainly do that!
