Vanilla And Cinnamon Crumb Cake
- Crumb top
- 1 1/2 cups cake flour
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 10 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- Cake batter
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups cake flour, unsifted
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sour cream (not fat-reduced)
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (325 degrees for a dark-finish pan).
- Line a 10-inch springform pan with parchment, grease the bottom and sides and set aside.
- To make the crumb top, in the bowl of a heavy-duty electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the flour, sugar; and cinnamon.
- Cut in the vanilla and cold butter on low speed until coarse dry crumbs are formed.
- Pour into a small bowl and set aside.
- If not using immediately, refrigerate until needed.
- To make the cake batter, without cleaning the mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, and the vanilla extract and beat well on medium speed for 30 seconds.
- The mixture will be loose.
- Add the flour; cinnamon, baking powder; baking soda, and salt and beat on low speed for 15 seconds.
- Add the sour cream and beat on medium-high speed only until the lumps smooth out and the mixture looks fluffy, about 30 seconds on medium-high speed.
- Do not overbeat.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared springform pan.
- Sprinkle the top evenly with the crumb topping.
- Bake on the center rack of the oven for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the top is crisp and feels firm when gently touched in the center; the cake separates slightly from the sides of the pan, and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean (it may be a bit moist; that's okay).
- Do not overbake, or the cake will be dry.
- Remove from the oven and cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes before removing the sides of the pan.
- Let cool at least 30 minutes before serving warm, or cover in plastic wrap to serve later at room temperature.
- Store at room temperature for up to 3 days.
