Crumb Cake #CakeSliceBakers

This lovely, tender cake topped with a cinnamon crunch streudel is perfect for breakfast or for dessert.

This was my choice for this month's The Cake Slice Bakers......

Each month The Cake Slice Bakers are offered a selection of cakes from the current book we are baking through. This year it is Little Everyday Cakes by Candace Floyd. We each choose one cake to bake, and then on the 20th - never before - we all post about our cake on our blogs. There are a few rules that we follow, but the most important ones are to have fun and enjoy baking & eating cakes!

Follow our Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest pages where you can find all of our cakes, as well as inspiration for many other cakes. You can also click on the thumbnail pictures below to take you to each of our cakes. If you have a blog and are interested in joining The Cake Slice Bakers and baking along with us, please send an email to thecakeslicebakers at gmail dot com for more details.

The Cake Slice Bakers also have a new Facebook group called The Cake Slice Bakers and Friends. This group is perfect for those who do not have a blog but want to join in the fun and bake through this book.

It is a new year and a new book - Little Everyday Cakes - and our choices for March 2021 were ~

I made my cake to take up north with me this weekend as Frank is holding a CPL (concealed pistol license) class and I provide breakfast and lunch for the students.  The cake will be served later today so I don't have a photo of the cake divided into serving pieces.

I have been very happy with my selections from this new cookbook thus far.  I have not yet tasted this cake but it smells delicious and it looks very promising.  I am confident enough in this recipe to serve it to the students without a taste test.  That says a lot about my confidence in this cookbook.

• 1 1/2 c. flour

Cake

1. Combine the flour, baking soda, salt and nutmeg.  Set aside.
2. Place the butter in the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.  Cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.  Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each.  
3. Turn the speed to low and add some of the flour mixture to the butter mixture alternating with the buttermilk until just combined.  Stir in the vanilla.  
4. Scrape the batter into an 8" square baking pan that has been liberally treated with baking spray.   With your fingers, crumble the reserved topping over the batter, covering completely.  Gently press the crumbs down into the batter and bake in a preheated 350* oven for 35-40 minutes, until a skewer inserted into the cake removes cleanly.
