Delicious Almond Ring Coffee Cake Recipe for Any Occasion

Ingredients

Servings:
10
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (sifted)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup butter (softened)
  • 1 cup milk (warm)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup sliced almonds (for topping)
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg for egg wash

Instructions

8 steps

  1. Prepare the Dough

    In a mixing bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and a pinch of sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

    Ensure the milk is not too hot to avoid killing the yeast.
  2. Mix Ingredients

    Add softened butter, granulated sugar, eggs, almond extract, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix well.

    Use an electric mixer for a smoother batter.
  3. Incorporate Flour

    Gradually add flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead for about 5 minutes.

    The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
  4. First Rise

    Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) during this time.
  5. Shape the Cake

    Punch down the risen dough and roll it into a rectangle. Spread brown sugar, cinnamon, and sliced almonds on top.

    Roll tightly to form a log, then shape into a ring.
  6. Second Rise

    Place the shaped ring on a baking sheet and let it rise for another 30 minutes.

    Brush with egg wash for a golden finish.
  7. Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

    Check for doneness by tapping the bottom; it should sound hollow.
  8. Cool and Serve

    Allow the cake to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy with coffee!

    Dust with powdered sugar for an elegant touch.
