What You Need ( Baking soda is in the picture but not the recipe ;) )

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter

Topping

 

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup white sugar

  • 1/4 cup butter
 

What To Do

Preheat oven to 350 – grease 9×13 pan.

In a medium bowl mix 1/4 cup of flour, sugar, cinnamon. Next add in butter – I use clean hand and mix together the mixture till it becomes coarse crumbles – set aside.

In a large bowl add – flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Next add in butter – I use clean hand and mix together the mixture till it becomes coarse crumbles. In small bowl add milk, egg and vanilla together. Then pour the wet mix into the dry. You will have a VERY thick batter.

Spread batter into pan ( again it will be VERY thick) top with crumble topping.

Cook for 25 – 30 minutes.

I made this yesterday and it is AWESOME! I served it to my in-laws and husband and one of our kids, all of them loved it.
I made it dairy free by replacing the butter with coconut oil both in the cake and the topping. This gave it a very rich flavor, but I do imagine that it didn’t get as much of a golden color than if you used butter (I used the egg).
I will keep this on rotation for sure!

Would it hurt the recipe to use salted butter as opposed to the unsalted?

I would use unsalted — salted butter will affect the taste

Is the butter to be melted first?

You can usually substitute salted butter for unsalted in baking. Just skip the half teaspoon of salt. You can add a pinch if you like. This should work for all but the most delicate recipes.

I wouldn’t melt it…. I would let the butter sit out to get to room temp.

I just made this and had a piece! It was so easy to make and my whole house smelled great! The cake came out absolutely delicious and was a hit, even though it was a bit on the fluffy side!
