Ingredients
Scale
- Crumb Topping:
- 2½ cups all purpose flour
- 1½ cups light brown sugar packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- Cake:
- 2¼ cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 cup full-fat sour cream
- 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl using a fork, stir together the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt. Drizzle in the melted butter, stirring with a fork just until combined; set aside for a few minutes.
- In another medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer on high speed, beat the butter and granulated sugar until creamy and smooth. Reduce the speed to stir and add the eggs one at a time, mixing just until combined.
- Add the sour cream and vanilla, mixing just until incorporated.
- Keeping the mixer on stir, add the flour mixture in three intervals, mixing just until combined. Scrape down the bowl and beater as needed.
- Spoon the cake batter into the prepared baking pan. Use an offset spatula to even the batter.
- Sprinkle the crumb topping over the cake mixture and gently press it lightly into the cake.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with just a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 45 minutes before slicing. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- Make sure the eggs are at room temperature for better mixing.
- Let the cake cool sufficiently to make slicing easier.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
