Delicious coffee cake with a crunchy crumb topping and laced with citrus flavors. Perfect with tall cup of coffee.

Recipe Adapted from How to Cook Everything.

Ingredients

Batter:

2 Cups all-purpose flour
2 Teaspoons baking powder
1/3 Cup sugar
1 Teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch of salt
Zest from one orange (probably about 1 Tablespoon)
1 large egg
2/3 Cup milk
1/4 Cup orange juice
5 Tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Crumb Topping:

1 Cup brown sugar (I used light)
4 Tablespoons unsalted butter, soft
4 Tablespoons flour
1 Teaspoon cinnamon
1 Cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Instructions

1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Mix together topping ingredients in a small bowl. It should be a crumbly mixture.

2) For batter, Mix together your dry ingredients (including the zest) and then add in your egg, followed by milk and OJ. Finally, stir in melted butter.

3) In an 8×8 baking dish (lightly buttered) you want to pour in about half of your batter, followed by half of your topping, followed by the rest of your batter and then the rest of your topping.

4) Bake this for about 30-35 minutes at 375. A toothpick should come out cleanly from the center.

5) Let this cool for at least 5 minutes before chopping into it.
