Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F and adjust an oven rack to the upper middle position. Line a 8×8-inch square pan with parchment paper, with enough paper to fold over the sides. Set aside.
Crumb Topping:
-
Whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt and flour. Pour melted butter over the mixture and use a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to mix thoroughly. Mixture will be thick and doughy. Set aside.
-
With a hand or stand mixer, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt and mix to combine. With mixer on low, begin adding the pieces of butter one at a time. Continue mixing until mixture resembles moist crumbs with no visible butter chunks remaining.
-
Add egg, yolk, vanilla and buttermilk. Beat at medium for 1 to 2 minutes until the batter becomes light and fluffy, scraping down the sides of the bowl if necessary.
-
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Top the batter with the crumble topping, breaking apart any big chunks into smaller pea-sized pieces. Start at the edges and work toward the center.
-
Bake the cake for 35 to 40 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted comes out clean and crumb-free. After baking, cool cake for at least 30 minutes.
-
Remove cake from pan by lifting out of the pan by the edges of the parchment paper. Dust with powdered sugar.
