Vegan Coffee Cake Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375.
  • In a small mixing bowl, prepare the streusel topping by adding the melted vegan butter, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon together and mixing until a crumble forms. Set aside.
  • Mix the almond milk, melted vegan butter, maple syrup, vanilla, baking powder, and baking soda. Add the flour and mix until combined. Don't over-mix.
  • Pour half of the batter into a greased 8 or 9 inch cake pan. Sprinkle the cinnamon and brown sugar over the batter. Then, evenly and carefully spread the remaining batter over the cinnamon and sugar. Evenly sprinkle the streusel topping over the cake and cover the cake pan with foil.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, then, remove the foil and bake for another 20-30 minutes (times will vary based on material and size of pan) until you can stick a toothpick down the center of the cake and it comes out clean. While the cake is baking, option to whisk together powdered sugar, almond milk, and vanilla to make the icing to drizzle over the cake. Enjoy!
