Equipment

2 1/2 cups flour divided
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar divided
3/4 cup butter melted and divided
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 large eggs, divided
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons Vanilla extract, divided
21 ounce can Strawberry pie filling, optional

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups flour divided
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar divided
3/4 cup butter melted and divided
16 ounces cream cheese softened
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 large eggs divided
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons Vanilla extract divided
21 ounce can Strawberry pie filling optional

Instructions

Heat the oven to 350°F.
Lightly grease or spray a 9x13-inch baking pan.
In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup flour, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/4 cup melted butter until crumbly. Set aside.
Mix the softened cream cheese in another small bowl with one cup of sugar, 1 egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until it is smooth and creamy. Set aside.
In a larger bowl, combine the remaining flour (2 cups), remaining sugar (1 cup), and baking powder.
Add the remaining egg, milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and the remaining 1/2 cup of melted butter to the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth and lump-free.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Add the cream cheese mixture to the top of the batter.
If using pie filling, spread it in rows with the pie filling in between, then swirl together before adding the topping.
Sprinkle the crumb mixture over the filling.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
Allow to cool before slicing into servings.

Notes

You may need to add an additional 10 to 15 minutes baking time when using pie filling. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the coffee cake comes out clean.
