Instructions
- Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F now. Grease your square baking pan with soft butter. Line the bottom with a piece of parchment paper. - Step 2
Make the crumb topping in a medium bowl first. Mix flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt together. Pour the melted butter over the dry mixture. - Step 3
Use a fork to stir the topping ingredients. Form the mixture into many large crumbs. Set the bowl aside to let them firm. - Step 4
Whisk the flour and baking powder together now. Add a pinch of salt to the bowl. Set this dry mixture aside for later use. - Step 5
Cream the butter and sugar in a large bowl. Use your electric mixer for a smooth texture. Add the egg and vanilla to the bowl. - Step 6
Add the flour mixture and sour cream now. Mix until the batter is thick and smooth. Do not overmix the batter at this stage. - Step 7
Spread the batter into your prepared baking pan. Make sure the layer is very even. Use your spatula to smooth the top surface. - Step 8
Sprinkle the large crumbs all over the batter. Cover the entire surface with the crumb topping. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until golden.
Notes
➜ Use cold butter for the crumbs to stay chunky.
➜ Do not overmix the cake batter to keep it soft.
➜ Always grease your pan well so it does not stick.
➜ Let the cake cool before adding the powdered sugar.
➜ Spoon flour into measuring cups for the best accuracy.
