How To Make Crumb Topping
  1. In a medium sized bowl, mix all purpose flour and dark brown sugar together. (Add in ground cinnamon now, if using.)

  2. Add in the cold, cubed butter. Using a fork or a pastry blender (pastry cutter), work the butter into the mixture until it is completely combined. (The mixture will sort of resemble a paste and have the consistency of wet sand.)

  3. Using your hands, pinch and press the dough together into crumbs, making the crumbs as small or large as you’d like. (I like to do a variety of sizes.)

  4. Sprinkle on top of crumb cake, coffee cake, muffins, fruit crisps, pies, quick breads, etc.
