Recipe
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a tube or bundt pan. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time until fluffy. Beat in vanilla, maple extract, yams, sour cream, orange juice and rind until creamy and smooth. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt until combined. Gradually blend this into the creamed mixture until uniform. Stir in the raisins.
Combine all streusel ingredients in a small bowl. Into your prepared pan, spoon in 1/2 of the batter, smoothing top to make an even layer. Sprinkle on 1/2 of the streusel mixture. Repeat this procedure, ending with a final layer of streusel.
Bake cake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Cool for about 30 minutes before removing from pan. Serve at room temperature or slightly warm.
