Cherry jam pie with coffee icing topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
Streusel
- 3/4 cup premium flour
- 2/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- A pinch of fine salt
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
Pie
- 110g unsalted butter, room temperature, plus extra for greasing the pan
- 2 cups premium flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 tsp of soda
- 0.5 tsp fine salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2/3 cup cherry jam
Glaze
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp. milk
Preparation:
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the butter and mix thoroughly with your fingers or a fork until all the butter is evenly distributed and incorporated into the flour. Form small to medium-sized clumps with your fingers.
- Preheat oven to 175°C. Grease a 20cm square baking pan with butter.
- Pie:
In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour. Mix just until all ingredients are incorporated.
- Spoon half the batter (it will be very thick) into the prepared pan and smooth the surface with a spatula. Top with cherry jam and smooth it with a spatula. Spoon the remaining batter over the cherry layer and smooth the surface with a spatula. Sprinkle with streusel.
- Bake until the crust is deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then invert the cake onto a plate; invert it back onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Glaze:
When the cake has cooled completely, mix the powdered sugar and milk until a smooth glaze is formed. Drizzle the glaze over the cake and let it set.
