Equipment

  • 1 10"x10" glass baking pan

Ingredients
  

Coffee Cake Batter:

  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup melted cooled butter
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg lightly beaten

Crumb Topping:

  • 40 grams Nairn's chocolate chip oat graham crackers 4 crackers
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • 3 tablespoons soft butter

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Spray a 10"x10" glass baking pan with Baker's Release spray. If you have to use a smaller pan, consider putting some of the batter into a muffin tin so it doesn't overflow. The bake time for a muffin size will be less, so watch it and use a toothpick to test when it is done.

Coffee Cake Batter:

  • Toss the strawberries and chocolate chips with flour in a mixing bowl to coat them.
  • Add the sugar, baking powder and salt and stir again.
  • Separately, mix up the cooled melted butter with the buttermilk and beaten egg.
  • Gently stir in to the dry ingredients just to blend.
  • Spread the batter in the cake pan and smooth out.

Crumb Topping:

  • Crush the grahams into crumbs and mix with remaining ingredients for the toppng until it is crumbly and evenly coated with butter.
  • Sprinkle the crumb topping over the cake batter evenly.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out without wet batter.
  • Cool in the pan then slice into 3x3 for nine servings.
  • Optional: Sprinkle top with powdered sugar before serving and/or sliced strawberries. (These two ingredients not included in nutrition info as they are optional)
