Banana Streusel Coffee Cake image

This coffee cake is moist and tender, with a subtle banana flavor. My family loves the oatmeal streusel topping. If you like nuts in your topping, stir in a cup of chopped, toasted pecans or walnuts after cutting the butter into the dry ingredients. It's delicious while still warm, but the banana flavor intensifies if allowed to...

STREUSEL TOPPING
1 c all-purpose flour
1 c quick or old-fashioned oatmeal (not instant)
1 c packed light brown sugar
3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 stick cold butter, cut into small pieces
CAKE BATTER
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 stick butter, softened
1-1/4 c sugar
2 large eggs
1 c mashed bananas (about 3 small)
1 tsp vanilla extract
2-1/4 c all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • 1. For the topping, combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse into small moist crumbs (or cut butter into dry ingredients with a pastry blender or even with your fingers). Refrigerate while preparing cake batter.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 baking pan and set aside.
  • 3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, and sugar until blended. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • 4. Add the bananas and vanilla extract.
  • 5. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon; gradually add to the creamed mixture.
  • 6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly and smoothing top.
  • 7. Evenly sprinkle the topping onto the batter.
  • 8. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. It took 33 minutes in my oven. Cool on a wire rack for at least an hour before cutting. Enjoy!!!
