8. Batter will have a curdled appearance.
9. Stir in dry ingredients just until mixed.

11. Spread half the batter in prepared pan.
12. Sprinkle with half the pecan mixture.
13. Spread remaining batter over, then sprinkle with remaining pecan mixture.
14. Bake in 350-degree oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until cake tester inserted near center comes out clean.
15. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then remove from pan to cool completely on wire rack.

Notes:
-I didn't have any other flavorings in the house so I just used 1 t. of vanilla
-I also didn't have any pecans but it didn't really change anything
-I used reduced fat sour cream and it made no difference
-I didn't have a 10-in tube pan so I used an 8-in square and baked it for 50 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Worked beautifully.

This coffee cake is so moist I wanted to keep eating it. Two big thumbs up.
