I'm not sure a loaf pan was the appropriate cooking container for this dish. A loaf pan has very tall and steep sides and it is almost impossible to form the cake mix up the sides without compressing it so much that it forms a brick-hard crust. Perhaps a larger more shallow pan is more appropriate. One also doesn't "drizzle" the sour cream and egg mixture when you use a loaf pan because there is too much batter for such a small surface area. All that said, it makes a tasty, if not unconventional, streudel.
