Peach Cobbler Coffee Cake

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup finely chopped pecans
• 0.5 cups white sugar
• 0.5 cups brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter , cut into pieces and softened

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan; line with parchment paper with 1 inch overhang over sides.

2. 2

   Whisk 1 cup flour, pecans, ½ cup white sugar, ½ cup brown sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl. Work ½ cup butter pieces into flour mixture using a fork, stirring and cutting until combined. Refrigerate topping until needed.

3. 3

   Gently combine peach slices, ½ cup brown sugar, cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a medium saucepan over medium heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves and mixture becomes thick and syrupy, 6 to 8 minutes. Cool.

4. 4

   Beat 1¾ cup sugar, ¾ cup butter, vanilla, and 1 teaspoon salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until combined and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

5. 5

   Combine 4 cups flour and baking powder in a separate bowl. Whisk buttermilk and sour cream together in a separate bowl.

6. 6

   Beat flour mixture into butter mixture in 3 additions, alternating with buttermilk mixture, beating at a low speed to combine.

7. 7

   Pour about ⅔ batter into the prepared pan; sprinkle remaining ½ cup brown sugar over top. Gently smooth using a silicone spatula. Spoon peach filling evenly over brown sugar; gently smooth using a silicone spatula. Spread remaining ⅓ batter over peach filling. Sprinkle topping evenly over cake.

8. 8

   Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown at edges and cooked through, 70 to 80 minutes, rotating pan halfway through baking. (Cover the pan with aluminum foil after 1 hour baking if topping looks dark enough.) Transfer the pan to a wire rack; cool before slicing, 30 to 40 minutes.
