Coffee Cake (Vegan!) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (preferably unbleached)
    1 cup sugar
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/4 teaspoon salt (or just a few dashes)
    1 cup plain soy yogurt (I use So Nice brand)
    3 teaspoons egg substitute (such as Ener-G)
    4 tablespoons water
    For the topping
    2 tablespoons flour (whole wheat is good)
    1 tablespoon vegan margarine (or use veg. oil plus a dash of salt)
    5 tablespoons brown sugar
    1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/2 cup walnuts or 1/2 cup other nuts
Preparation
    Make the streusel topping: mix together the 2 tbsp flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, margarine in a small bowl; add nuts and set aside.
    Sift or stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
    Stir the egg replacer into the water until mixed (in a large bowl), then add the soy yogurt (be sure to use a brand of soy yogurt that is very smooth and creamy tasting).
    Add dry ingredients to the yogurt mixture and beat with a spoon just until smooth.
    Scrape into an 8\" or 9\" pan, either nonstick or lightly oiled/sprayed.
    Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter.
    Bake in preheated 350 degrees F oven, for about 30-35 minutes or until done (depends on the size/shape of your pan- you may need to check after 25 min if the pan is quite shallow).
