Instructions

MAKING CINNAMON STRUESEL

  • Add all ingredients (except butter) to a bowl.
  • Whisk to combine

  • Put in fridge to chill

MAKING COFFEE CAKE

  • Combine dry ingredients. Set aside
  • In a large bowl, whip butter with an electric hand mixer until fluffy and pale in color
  • Slowly add granulated sweetener and whip until butter is well creamed. (I add sweetener in about 4 additions)
  • Add eggs one at a time. Mix well after each
  • Add ½ dry ingredients and ½ Sour cream. Mix on medium speed for one minute
  • Add remaining dry ingredients, sour cream, and vanilla. Mix 1 minute
  • Add 1/2 cake batter to 8x4 Loaf pan
  • Add cinnamon "sugar" layer - use a spoon to gently mix cinnamon with batter.
  • Add the remaining batter to the pan
  • Top with HALF the Cinnamon Streusel

BAKE

  • 400℉ (8-10 minutes)
  • Lower Temp to 350F
  • Bake For 45 - 50 more minutes

Notes

*NOTE: Almond Flour burns easily. Keep an eye on it and tent cake with foil once the top is browned to your liking
Cool completely and add vanilla glaze. Enjoy!
