Method

In a large mixing bowl, combine first four ingredients with a fork. Add oil and stir until crumbly. In a medium size mixing bowl, reserve 3 3/4 cups of this mixture for topping. To the original bowl add eggs and milk to make the batter; stir until well blended. Stir in walnuts; pour batter into a greased 15 x 10" baking pan. To the reserved mixture cut in butter and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture over cake batter. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven approximately 40 to 45 minutes or until a knife comes out clean when inserted. Cool about 10 to 15 minutes and sprinkle top with confectioner's sugar.

 

Notes: You may also add a tablespoon or so of lemon or lime curd alongside the serving of coffee cake for an added tang.

 

Number of Servings: 10-12
