Rich Sour Cream And Pecan Swirl Coffee Cake

Ingredients:

• Pecan Swirl: ¾ cup finely chopped pecans, ½ cup brown sugar, 2 tsp cinnamon.
• Cake: 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, ½ tsp salt, 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter (softened), 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 3 large eggs, 1 cup full-fat sour cream, 1 tbsp vanilla extract.

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan or tube pan.
2. Mix the pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
3. Cream butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla.
4. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Fold into the butter mixture alternately with the sour cream.
5. Spoon half the batter into the pan, sprinkle with half the pecan mixture, add the remaining batter, and top with the rest of the pecans (or swirl lightly with a knife).
6. Bake for 45–55 minutes until golden and a tester comes out clean. Cool 15 minutes before inverting.
