Cinnamon Crumb Cake

Recipe By : Cooking Light-5/98

1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup chilled stick margarine or butter, cut in small pieces
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg

1., Preheat oven to 350°.

2. Lightly spoon the flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl, and cut in margarine with a pastry blender or 2 knives until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Reserve 1/2 cup flour mixture for topping, and set aside.

3. Combine remaining flour mixture, baking powder, and baking soda, and add the buttermilk, vanilla, and egg. Beat at medium speed of a mixer until blended. Spoon batter into an 8-inch round cake pan coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle reserved 1/2 cup flour mixture over batter.
