This coffee cake is full of almond flavor, sour cream tanginess, and delicious sour cherry preserves. Make ahead for breakfast in the mornings or for an addicting dessert!
Add the drained cherries, sugar, and cornstarch in a saucepan over medium heat and let simmer for 5 minutes or until the mixture has thickened.
Add the butter in after taking the mixture off of the heat and set aside.
For the cake:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a tube/bundt pan.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugar and eggs. Fold in the sour cream and vanilla carefully. Add the dry ingredients and mix well.
Spoon half of the batter into the prepared pan. Make a well in the center of the batter all around the pan. Then spoon in the cherry pie filling being as careful as possible to keep it in the center.
In a small bowl, combine the streusel ingredients. Sprinkle the streusel over the batter/cherries.
Spoon the remaining batter over the streusel.
Bake at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes (55), or until a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool for at least 15 minutes. Using a knife, loosen the edges of the cake from the pan.
Turn the cake out onto a plate. Cover until serving.
This cake is best when made the day before serving.
To make the powdered sugar glaze, simply whisk the 3 glaze ingredients together, adding enough cream to make the glaze able to be drizzled. Drizzle over the cooled cake.
