- 2 1⁄2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1⁄4 cup butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 1 egg
- 1⁄2 teaspoon almond extract or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

directions
- PREHEAT THE OVEN to 375°F
- Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch round, deep baking dish such as a quiche dish.
- STIR TOGETHER the brown sugar and walnuts in a small bowl; set aside.
- COMBINE THE FLOUR, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
- Whisk in the milk, melted butter, egg, almond or vanilla extract, and nutmeg until smooth and well mixed.
- Spread about two-thirds of the batter in the prepared pan.
- Sprinkle the coconut evenly over it.
- Scatter half of the blackberries over the batter, pushing them slightly into it.
- SPOON THE REMAINING BATTER into the dish, gently spreading it toward the edges; you don't need to cover the berries completely.
- Scatter the remaining berries over the top.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar and walnuts evenly over the berries.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes.
- Let cool.
- FOR THE GLAZE, combine the powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl and stir until the sugar dissolves.
- Drizzle the glaze over the coffee cake, beginning in the center and working in a spiral toward the outer edge.
- Cut into wedges and serve.
