BANANA COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F and lightly grease and flour a 9x13 baking pan. Set aside.
• Combine butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer (or in a large bowl and use an electric mixer). Beat until well-combined, then stir in mashed bananas.
• Add eggs, stirring well after each addition, and then add sour cream and vanilla extract and stir well.
• In a separate, medium-sized bowl, whisk together your flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to wet, stirring until completely combined (be sure to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl). I prefer to do this with a spatula to avoid over-mixing the batter.
• Pour batter evenly into prepared 9x13 pan. Prepare Streusel.

• Pull the cake from the oven and sprinkle your reserved streusel on top, gently pressing it into the very top of the cake. Return the cake to the oven and continue baking until a toothpick comes out clean and the cake springs back when touched, about another 22 to 25 minutes.
• Move the cake to the top rack of the oven and set the oven setting to broil. If your oven doesn't have this setting, turn up the temperature to 450º Fahrenheit. Broil for 30 seconds to a minute. This gives the coffee cake a crunchy streusel topping.
