Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 1 cup Brown sugar (packed)
- 1 tablespoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cups Extra unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan and set it aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the softened butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk to the flour mixture. Mix until smooth and well combined, but do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth it out with a spatula.
To make the crumb topping, combine the remaining 0.5 cup of flour, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon in a small bowl.
Pour the melted butter into the crumb mixture and use a fork to mix until it forms a crumbly texture.
Evenly sprinkle the crumb topping over the cake batter in the pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Optional: Dust the cake with powdered sugar before serving for a touch of sweetness and presentation.
Slice into squares or rectangles and serve. Enjoy your Vanilla and Cinnamon Crumb Cake!
