Ingredients
  

Filling

  • cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup cane sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Crumble Topping

  • cup all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup cane sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature

For The Cake

  • cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • teaspoons baking powder
  • teaspoons baking soda
  • ¾ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • cups cane sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • teaspoons vanilla extract
  • cups whole milk Greek yogurt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Make the filling: In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cane sugar, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • Make the crumble topping: In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, cane sugar, and cinnamon. Add the butter and use a spatula to combine. Mix until there is no dry flour remaining and the mixture is crumbly. Don’t overmix. Set aside.
  • Make the cake: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, or using an electric mixer, cream the butter. Add sugar and mix to combine. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla. Add a quarter of the dry ingredients and mix, then add a third of the yogurt and mix. Repeat until you have added all the yogurt and dry ingredients, ending with the dry ingredients.
  • Evenly spread half the batter at the bottom of the prepared pan. Sprinkle with the filling. Dollop the remaining batter in spoonfuls across the top of the filling and use a spatula or knife to carefully spread it into an even layer. Sprinkle the crumble topping on top.
  • Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
