Ingredients
1 ⅓ cup Sugar, divided
2 ⅓ cup whole-wheat pastry flour, divided
3 tsp Orange Zest, divided
1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
¼ tsp Nutmeg
¼ cup Earth Balance
2 tbs. Earth Balance
⅓ cup Almond Milk (Unflavored)
⅓ cup Puree Orange
⅓ cup Puree Apple
½ tsp Vanilla Extract
1 tablespoon Baking Powder
¼ tsp Salt
Powdered Sugar, to sprinkle after baking
Method
1.Preaheat: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare 9×9 (or 8×8 in a pinch) baking dish (lightly oil or non stick baking)
2.Prepare Streusel Topping: In a small bowl, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/3 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoons orange zest, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg. Combine. Add 1/4 cup earth balance and set aside (this modification allows the margarine to come closer to room temperature and makes it easier to combine with the powder mixture later).
3.Batter Up!: For batter, in a medium bowl, stir together remaining 2/3 cup sugar, “milk”, orange puree, apple puree (or apple sauce), remaining 2 tablespoons margarine, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons orange zest, and vanilla extract. Add remaining 2 cups of flour, baking powder, remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt, and stir until smooth.
4.Layering in Baking Dish: Spread 1/2 of the batter into the prepared dish. Sprinkle 1/2 of streusel mixture evenly over batter. Place spoonfuls of remaining batter over streusel filling, covering it completely, and sprinkle remaining streusel over the top.
5.Bake it!: Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick (or a small, sharp knife) inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool slightly (ever so slightly). sprinkle top of coffeecake with a littel powdered sugar, and cut into 9 pieces.
