Homemade Coffee Cake

One of the recipes that my children made with their 4H cooking class was Coffee Cake.  Kiddo #1 made it for us at home and it was absolutely delicious!  :-)

Coffee Cake

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup oil
2 teaspoons vanilla

topping-
1/2 cup brown sugar
5 tablespoons flour
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 cup melted butter or margarine

Place flour, baking powder, sugar and salt into a large mixing bowl.  Carefully stir mixture with a spoon.  Be sure to work out all of the lumps.  Add egg, milk, oil and vanilla.  Stir until well blended. Pour batter into a microwave safe glass cake dish.


Melt butter or margarine in a small bowl, then add brown sugar, flour and cinnamon for topping.


 Stir with spoon until all the lumps are removed. Sprinkle topping over cake batter.


Microwave on medium (50%) for 7-8 minutes.  If your microwave doesn't rotate, rotate dish one-quarter turn every two minutes.  Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake.  If toothpick is clean, cake is done.  If toothpick is not clean, continue microwaving on medium for 2 minutes.  Check for doneness and repeat cook/check cycle until done.

Enjoy!  :-)
