How to make Cinnamon Sour Cream Coffee Cake
To make the Cinnamon Streusel:

Step 2: With butter, grease a9 x 9-inch pan.
Step 3: Add the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Whisk until incorporated.
Step 4: Place the butter with sugar in a large mixing bowl. Cream for about 3 to 4 minutes or until light and fluffy.
Step 5: Add in the eggs followed by the vanilla. Mixing well and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed before adding in the flour mixture.
Step 6: Then, add in the sour cream or Greek yoghurt. Mix until everything is combined.
Step 7: Add half of the cake batter in the prepared pan. Spread with an offset spatula to cover the bottom.
Step 8: Evenly sprinkle half of the cinnamon streusel over the cake batter.
Step 9: Place the rest of the batter over and spread to cover the previous layer.
Step 10: Sprinkle the top with the rest of the cinnamon streusels.
Step 11: Place inside the preheated oven and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes or until lightly browned. Check the doneness by inserting a toothpick in the centre. When it comes out clean the cake is done.
Step 12: Remove from the oven and allow the cake to cool completely before serving.
