New York Crumb Cake

Ingredients

2 tablespoons canola oil

4 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 large egg

1/2 cup milk

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

1 cup light-brown sugar, firmly packed

1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled

confections sugar for dusting

Directions

Place rack in center of oven, and preheat to 325 F. Lightly brush a 9 by 12 baking pan, or two round pans with canola oil, dust with flour and tap to remove excess. set aside.

In medium bowl, sift together 1 1/2 cups flour, the granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.

In a second bowl, whisk together the 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. it wont look like enough.

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. (this didn't happen for me but I didn't cool the butter so I'll try that)

bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until cake tests done.

Turn pan around once while baking
