Serves: 1 (9x13) cake

Rich buttery cake topped with a fat layer of irresistible crumbs similar to Entenmann's crumb cake only better, if you ask me because it's homemade.

Ingredients
butter and flour, for greasing the pan
Cake:

  • 1 + ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Topping:

  • 2 + ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup packed light-brown sugar
  • 1 + ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup (16 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled to room temperature
  • confectioners' sugar, for dusting


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°. Butter and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan or line with parchment and lightly grease with non-stick baking spray.
  2. Make the Cake:
  3. In a medium bowl sift the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together.
  4. In a separate large mixing bowl whisk the egg, milk, oil, and vanilla together until well combined.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and gently fold in with a spatula or wooden spoon.
  6. Scrape the batter into the greased pan and spread evenly from corner to corner - it will be a very thin layer.
  7. Make the Topping:
  8. In a medium bowl whisk the flour, brown sugar and cinnamon together. Pour the melted butter over it and toss together with a spoon until well combined.
  9. Use your hand to sprinkle the crumbs evenly over the top of the batter breaking the mixture apart into big crumbs.
  10. Bake 10 minutes and rotate the pan. Bake 10 - 12 minutes longer or until a toothpick comes out clean from center.
  11. Cool in pan on a wire rack.
  12. Dust the top generously with confectioners' sugar and use a serrated knife to cut into squares or rectangles.
  13. Store tightly covered in a cool, dry place up to 4 days.
