BROOKLYN/NEW YORK - CRUMBLE COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare Topping: Mix together 1 1/2 cup flour, brown sugar, cinnamon & salt in a small bowl. Stir in the melted butter & vanilla until the mixture is well combined and crumbly. Set aside. Note-I used salted butter, so I skipped the added salt in the topping.
• Heat Oven to 375 degrees F.
• Grease square 9 x 9 x 2 inch pan. Also, can use a 8 x 8 x 2 inch pan or a round layer pan 9 x 1 1/2 inches.
• In a bowl mix the flour and baking powder. Whisk.
• In another bowl, beat the shortening & sugar. Add egg and beat. Add milk and beat until well combined.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Beat vigorously for 1/2 minute. Spread in greased pan.
• Sprinkle the topping evenly over batter.
• Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool. Can sprinkle with powdered sugar after cake is cooled.

NEW YORK CRUMB CAKE

Steps:

• Place rack in center of oven, and heat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly brush a 9-by-12 1/2-inch baking pan with canola oil, dust with flour, and tap to remove excess. Set aside. In a medium bowl, sift together 1 1/2 cups flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside. In a second bowl, whisk together egg, milk, canola oil, and vanilla. Using a rubber spatula, fold dry ingredients into egg mixture.
• Spread batter evenly into prepared pan, and set aside. In a medium bowl, combine remaining 2 1/2 cups flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Pour melted butter over flour mixture, and toss with a rubber spatula until large crumbs form. Sprinkle crumbs over batter.
• Transfer pan to oven, and bake, rotating pan after 10 minutes. Continue baking until a cake tester comes out clean, about 10 minutes more.
• Transfer baking pan to a wire rack to cool. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Using a serrated knife or bench scraper, cut into 3-inch squares. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
