Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of cane sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 0.5 teaspoon of baking soda, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt.
In a measuring cup, combine 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk and 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for a minute to curdle, forming a vegan buttermilk.
Add the vegan buttermilk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 0.5 cup of melted coconut oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the 2 cups of mixed berries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.
In a separate bowl, mix 0.5 cup of brown sugar, 0.75 cup of all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
Add 0.25 cup of cold diced vegan butter into the sugar-flour mixture. Use a fork or your fingers to combine until crumbs form.
Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the top of the cake batter.
Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
