👩🍳 Directions:
🍏 Step 1: Prepare the Apple Filling
In a medium pan, combine apples, sugars, cinnamon, lemon juice, and flour.
Cook over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until apples soften and sauce thickens slightly.
Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
🍰 Step 2: Make the Coffee Cake Batter
In a bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in eggs one at a time.
Add sour cream, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture until fully combined.
🧁 Step 3: Assemble the Cake
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
Spread half the batter into the dish.
Spoon apple filling evenly over batter.
Top with remaining batter and gently spread to cover.
🍯 Step 4: Make the Crumb Topping
Mix flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl.
Stir in melted butter until crumbly.
Sprinkle crumb topping evenly over the cake.
🔥 Step 5: Bake
Bake for 40–45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool slightly before serving warm.
