Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Crumb Topping:
    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 cup brown sugar
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
    • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • For the Cake:
    • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 tsp baking powder
    • 1/2 tsp baking soda
    • 1/4 tsp salt
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced

Instructions

  • Prepare the Crumb Topping:
    In a medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Stir in melted butter until crumbly. Set aside.
  • Prepare the Cake Batter:
    • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
    • In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
    • In a separate large bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add sour cream and vanilla extract, mixing well.
    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Fold in diced apples.
  • Assemble and Bake:
    • Spread cake batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
    • Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the batter.
    • Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool and Serve:
    Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a balanced flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • For extra sweetness, drizzle with powdered sugar glaze or serve with whipped cream.
