Ingredients

coffee cake-

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 Tbsp unsalted butter, room temp
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, measured then sifted
  • 10 oz raspberries
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds

cream cheese layer-

  • 8 oz cream cheese, room temp
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar

Instructions

  • Prepare a 10" springform pan. Add parchment to the bottom of the pan. Close sides. Butter sides and bottom of the pan. 
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Combine eggs, sugar, and softened butter. Mix 2 minutes. 
  • In another bowl, combine and sour cream, oil, and lemon juice. Mix1 minutes.
  • Add the sour cream mixture to the egg mixture. Give a quick mix.
  • Mix together the flour and baking powder. Add half of the flour, mix. Add the remaining flour, mix again.
  • In a bowl combine sugar and cream cheese, and mix.
  • Pour about ¾ of the cake batter into the springform pan, spreading evenly. Add cream cheese layer distributing it evenly.
  • Add 6 oz of the raspberries, pushing them down into the cream cheese layer.
  • Add remaining batter into the pan, spread evenly. Add sliced almonds over cake, add remaining raspberries on top pushing them in (I sliced my raspberries in half). 
  • Bake 40-50 minutes. Test readiness with a toothpick. It should come out clean if inserted into the center of the cake. 
  • Once cooled, add powdered sugar to the top. Enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea.

Notes

The baking time will slightly differ, depending on your oven. Be sure to check for the readiness with a toothpick, it should come out clean. :)
