Ingredients
For the cake:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup milk, (or buttermilk for more moistness)
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
For the crumble topping:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup light-brown sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter, melted and cooled
- powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
For the cake:
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
- Spray an 8"x 8" baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. (For a thinner cake, use a 9"x 13" baking dish)
- In a medium bowl combine 1 1/2 cups flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir until combined.
- In another bowl, combine egg, milk, oil and vanilla extract. Stir until it's all combined.
- Combine flour mixture with milk mixture and mix well. Spread the batter into the prepared baking dish.
For the crumble topping:
- In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, flour and cinnamon. Mix it together well.
- Then pour in melted butter and stir until combined and clumps begin to form.
- Sprinkle those clumps (crumbs) all over the cake batter. If you are using an 8"x 8" baking dish - it will be thick.
- Bake for about 40-50 minutes for an 8"x 8" dish. Bake for about 30-40 minutes for a 9"x 13" baking dish.
- Use a toothpick to check for doneness (as oven times vary.) Check around the 30 minute mark.
- Crumb topping should be golden brown and a toothpick inserted to the middle of the cake should come out clean.
- Allow cake to cool then dust with powdered sugar and serve.
