To make the topping, rub in sugar, butter and cold flour together, until getting a crumbly mixture, and covering the top of the batter completely. Allow baking in a hot oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, for 40-45 minutes. When a fork is inserted inside and comes out clean the baking is done. Let some time pass and serve. It’s a moist and fruity delight for all ages on special occasions.
Factors to Consider for a Moist Cake with Streusel Topping
There are a number of factors to keep in mind to achieve a light textured raspberry coffee cake. One of them is don’t mix the batter too much, otherwise the cake will be dense and won’t be light or fluffy. Furthermore, to maintain the ideal consistency of the batter, only use fresh or thawed raspberries, but make sure to dry them first to eliminate any excess moisture. Use stubbery vegetables or nuts when mixing with cold butter for a streusel topping to give it a soft texture, but melted butter will inhibit this and end up with a tightly packed icing. Ensure that the cake doesn’t get overcooked, especially when it has nearly completed the cooking time and creating light brown icing while using a stick to test if any uncooked crumbs are sticking mildewing around the top of the cake. Use these particular tips to ensure making the moist and fruity coffee cake gets only easier each time!
Fresh vs. Frozen Raspberries in Coffee Cake
In terms of taste, canned raspberries have a decent frosty essence but fresh raspberries have a strong and punchy bitter taste with a tougher texture and tend to be more exceptional, which is why I wait for the raspberry season and have them then because growing my own only has so many advantages. Depending on where they seasonally grow or if they are in season, I tend to use one or the other depending on what I want to prepare, which is usually cake.Frozen raspberries are a good substitute since they are harvested when they are perfectly ripe and have taste. If I use frozen raspberries, I will first soften them and dry them with a cloth to ensure that the batter does not become too wet. I love both methods and it just comes down to what suits me better and what my mood is!

Can I use frozen raspberries in breakfast recipes?
Frozen Raspberries Cookery Guidelines
One of the alternatives for breakfast items would be the use of frozen raspberries which are packed with essential nutrients. They add a great touch to smoothies, oatmeal and yogurt bowls straight from the freezer, without even having to thaw. When it comes to baking, for instance, muffins or pancakes, here ideally supplementation of raspberries should be done while they are still frozen in order to avoid excessive moisture. Just simply folding them in your batter would suffice as it would still retain their form. And in case raspberries are to be used in sauces and jams, thawing them should be done to allow for easier mixing. The best part is that frozen raspberries can still pack their nutrients in the desired level which therefore aids in an early start of the day being rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants.
Using Frozen Fruits: An Alteration of Recipes
Fruits are an important element in my recipes, especially when I add frozen raspberries. For instance, I use frozen fruits in my smoothies as they make the drink thick and shake-like. For oatmeal and yogurt dishes, I would skip thawing for the fruits as I prefer their tangy taste. When I bake muffins and pancakes, I add the fruits in frozen state, after folding them into the batter. In like instances where I have to make sauces or jams, I would thaw the frozen fruits first to ease the mixing and cooking process. Irrespective of how I use frozen raspberries, they are nutrient rich and versatile fruits and they are a great addition to my dishes.
