Mixed Berry Coffee Cake

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350℉ (180℃).

Grease a 9-inch square baking pan with butter, then flour it.

In a large bowl, add 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda, and whisk until combined.

In a medium bowl, add the eggs, applesauce, yogurt, sugar and lemon zest, and whisk until well blended.

In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, remaining ¼ cup of whole wheat or white flour, butter and oil until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Set aside.

Pour the liquid mixture into the flour mixture, and mix until just incorporated.

Transfer into the prepared baking pan with a rubber spatula, sprinkle the frozen berries over the batter.

Sprinkle the topping over the fruits.

Bake at 350° for 50 to 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. (The top may look a little bit soupy because of the berries, which is fine; as it’s cool down, it will firm up.)

Cool the cake on a wire rack for about 20 minutes.

Serve warm, at room temperature or chilled.
