Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
- 2 medium bananas mashed
- 1/4 cup greek yogurt
- 1 egg room temperature
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
For the crumb topping:
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 2/3 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° F and line a 9x9 inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 1” overhang for easy removal.
- In a medium mixing bowl, add flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix together and then set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, sugar, and brown sugar together, about 2 minutes. Then, add in the mashed bananas, yogurt, egg, and vanilla and whisk until everything is combined. Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix together using a spatula until just combined. Add the batter to the prepared baking pan and set aside while making the crumb topping.
- To make the crumb topping, add flour, brown sugar, sugar, and cinnamon to a medium bowl. Then add in the butter pieces and using a fork or your hands, mash everything together until the texture resembles sand and there are only very small pieces of butter left. Add the crumb topping on top of the batter making sure to get the corners and any bare spots.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow the coffee cake to cool for at least 30 minutes in the pan, then remove, slice and enjoy!
