Specialty Recipe

Buttermilk Coffee Cake

Ingredients

2-1/4 cups regular all-purpose flour (sift before measuring)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup salad oil

1/2 cup chopped walnuts, coarsely chopped

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 egg, slightly beaten

1 cup buttermilk

Sift flour again with salt and the 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon into large bowl of electric mixer. Add brown sugar, granulated sugar, and salad oil. Mix on medium speed until well-blended and feathery. Take out 3/4 cup of this mixture for the topping: add nuts and the 1 teaspoon cinnamon and mix, set aside.

To the remaining mixture, add soda, baking powder, egg and buttermilk. Mix until smooth. Spoon mixture into a buttered pan (9 x 13 x 2 inches) and level off the top. Sprinkle the reserved topping evenly over the top and lightly press in with the back of a spoon. Bake in a moderate oven (350 or 325 degrees for glass pan) for 25 to 30 minutes or until it tests done. Cut in squares; serve warm.
