Hi Guys! You know what?… It has taken me exactly 11549 days of my life to finally try a crumb cake!
Yes, that’s right, little ol’ me has spent 31 years and 227 days without ye wonderfulness of crumb cake.
I know, I know… it’s very sad. Please don’t hurt me. 😆
But my days of drooling over crumb cake recipes and wondering what they taste like are finally over.
Because now, I now live in crumb cake land!
And I’m happy to be here. It even has its own zip code. 😉
I don’t know why I haven’t tried out crumb cakes in the past because I love anything with a crumb, streusel or crumble coating, so I knew I’d love this cake.
And I was right too – like little pillows of soft cake for the crumbs to rest on. 🙂
I barely adapted the recipe, but I did decide to opt for cinnamon sugar instead of icing (confectioners’) sugar for the final dusting. It amped up the cinnamon already present and accounted for. 🙂
I guess I’ll be ‘crumbing’ everything up from now on. (Read: keep an eye out for more crumb cake recipes! 😉 )
Enjoy.
