Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon.

Step 3

Add 0.5 cup of softened unsalted butter to the dry ingredients and mix using a hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 cup of milk.

Spread the remaining batter evenly over the cinnamon-sugar layer.
