For an extra nutty flavor, toast the pecans lightly before chopping and adding them to the streusel. If you don't have light brown sugar, you can use granulated sugar with a tablespoon of molasses mixed in. The coffee cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x12-inch baking dish. (5 minutes)
02
StepMake the pecan streusel: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, chopped pecans, softened butter, and flour. Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside. (10 minutes)
03
StepPrepare the oat mixture: In a medium bowl, pour the boiling water over the rolled oats. Let stand for 10 minutes to soften. (10 minutes)
04
StepCombine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. (5 minutes)
05
StepCream butter and sugar: In a large bowl, cream together the light brown sugar and softened butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. (5 minutes)
06
StepIncorporate wet ingredients: Add the eggs, one at a time, to the creamed mixture, beating briefly after each addition. Scrape down the bowl and continue beating until smooth. Mix in the soaked oats, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. (5 minutes)
07
StepCombine wet and dry: Gradually stir the flour mixture into the wet ingredients with a rubber scraper or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)
08
StepAssemble and bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and evenly sprinkle the pecan streusel over the top. (5 minutes)
09
StepBake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (35 minutes)
10
StepCool slightly before serving: Let the coffee cake cool in the baking dish for at least 15 minutes before cutting and serving. (15 minutes)
