Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 115 grams Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon (if using), and salt. Mix together until evenly distributed.
Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter, two forks, or your hands, cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. The texture should be crumbly with some pea-sized pieces of butter still visible.
Use the streusel topping immediately by sprinkling it over your baked goods (like muffins or pies) or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week until ready to use.
Bake the streusel-topped dessert according to your recipe. The streusel topping will become golden brown and crisp as it bakes.
