Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup eggnog
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons eggnog (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers, breaking it into small, even pieces until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, eggnog, and vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until the mixture is fully combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Pour half of the batter into your prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter in the baking dish.

Step 8

Spread the remaining batter over the brown sugar layer, carefully smoothing it out.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

Step 10

While the cake bakes, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of eggnog until smooth. If the glaze is too thick, add more eggnog, 1 teaspoon at a time, to reach the desired consistency.

Step 11

Once the coffee cake has finished baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes.

Step 12

Drizzle the eggnog glaze over the slightly warm cake. Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before serving.

Step 13

Slice and enjoy your festive, spiced Eggnog Coffee Cake!
