Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream

Instructions

- Sprinkle the streusel topping over the batter in the baking pan.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Notes
You can substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream for a tangier flavor.
If you prefer a nut-free option, you can omit the walnuts or swap them for pecans.
For a slightly healthier version, try using coconut sugar instead of granulated sugar.
Don't skip the parchment paper; it helps with easy removal from the baking pan.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat slices in the microwave for a warm treat.
