Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.25 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 1/4 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of sugar, 2 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
Using a pastry cutter or fork, cut in 1/2 cup of unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup of milk, 2 eggs, and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake fluffy.
In a small bowl, prepare the cinnamon-sugar crumble by mixing 3/4 cup of brown sugar, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, 1/4 cup of flour, and 1/4 cup of cold, cubed butter. Use your hands or a fork to combine until crumbly.
Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar crumble mixture over the batter.
Pour the remaining batter on top and spread it evenly, then finish with the remaining crumble mixture on top.
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 let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
