India's Favorite Cinnamon Crumb Cake


This is one of my daughter's favorite breakfast treats and she always orders it for her birthday breakfast. I'll be honest, before this year, I had always made it from a mix. Much to my delight, the scratch effort paid off! It was simply delicious!
A Lesson in Cinnamony Deliciousness!

Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¾ cup sugar
½ cup butter, melted
½ cup sour cream
½ teaspoon salt
1 egg
½ cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon


Directions

Batter: Sift 1½ cups flour, baking powder, and salt together and set aside. In a separate bowl, beat egg until frothy. Beat in sugar and butter until combined. Add milk, sour cream, and vanilla. Add to flour mixture a little at a time and mix on low until combined. Do not over mix. If the batter is too stiff add a little more milk.
Streusel topping: Combine last 4 ingredients (make sure your butter for the streusel is chilled) in a small bowl and mix together, then set aside.
Grease an 8 x 8 inch pan and spread half the batter evenly in the pan. Sprinkle half of the streusel over batter. Repeat with remaining batter and streusel. Bake at 350 degrees in a preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
