Equipment
- 8"x10" pan
Ingredients
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar light or dark
- 2½ cups flour all purpose
- 1 tablespoon chai spice mix see link above for the recipe I used, or you can purchase it instore or online.
- ¾ cup butter melted, or you can use canola oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk You can use milk with a splash of white vinegar. Just let it sit for a few minutes to thicken up.
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉ degrees. Prep your pan with nonstick spray. I used a 8"x10" pan, but you can use a 9"x13", you will just cook it for a shorter amount of time.
- In a large bowl, mix together the sugars, flour, chai spice mix, melted butter, and salt.
- Once combined remove 1 cup of this mixture and set aside. This will become the streusel topping for the coffee cake.
- In a separate container mix together the buttermilk, egg, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Add the buttermilk mixture to the bowl with the flour/sugar mixture and mix until combined.
- Pour this mixture into a baking dish. I used an 8″x 10″.
- Sprinkle the 1 cup mixture you had set aside on top for the crumble.
- Bake for 45 to 50 minutes.
