Delicious Strawberry Almond Coffee Cake - A Guilt Free Indulgence!

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan.
2. Mix strawberries and 3 tablespoons brown sugar together in a bowl.
3. Mix flour, 1/3 cup brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate large bowl. Whisk yogurt, melted butter, vanilla extract, and egg in a third bowl. Stir yogurt mixture, alternating with milk, into flour mixture until just moistened. Spoon 2/3 of the batter into the prepared pan; spread strawberry mixture evenly over batter. Top with remaining batter. Sprinkle almonds over batter.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let cool in pan atop a wire rack for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of the pan before transferring cake to a serving platter.

"The cake batter was REALLY thick, and I had a tough time even spreading it into the bottom of the springform pan that I used. After adding the strawberry-sugar mixture, I literally had to just drop t..." See morehe rest of the batter on the top. The cake itself is more biscuit-y rather than cake-y, and even though it had both baking powder and baking soda, it didn't rise much. It appeared to be a little dry coming out of the oven, so I added a glaze on the top. I followed the recipe to the letter but ended up with a pretty small cake that wouldn't yield 10 servings in this house. It's an OK strawberry coffee cake, but there are others that I prefer. Thanks Manasi, but I'll probably stick with the other recipe which works better for us."
