Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

In another bowl, mix the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.

Step 6

To make the crumb topping, combine the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and chilled butter in a medium bowl. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 7

Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the batter.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Let the cake cool for at least 15 minutes. Optionally, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.

Step 10

Slice and enjoy with a warm cup of coffee or tea!
