For the Coffee Cake:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10-inch cast-iron skillet.

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
-
Gently fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed in the batter.
-
Spread the batter evenly in the prepared cast-iron skillet.

For the Streusel Topping:

In a small bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.

Add cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to incorporate until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Stir in the chopped nuts.

Sprinkle the streusel topping over the coffee cake batter.

Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the coffee cake to cool slightly before serving.
