Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups gluten free all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup full-fat sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup cold unsalted butter
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • ½ cup gluten free all-purpose flour

Method
 

  1. For the streusel, whisk ½ cup flour, brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Cut in ¼ cup cold butter until crumbly; chill.
  2. Cream softened butter and 1 cup granulated sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
  3. Whisk remaining flour, baking powder, baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Add to batter alternately with sour cream, mixing just until combined.
  4. Spread half the batter in a buttered 8-inch round pan. Combine 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon; sprinkle over batter. Add remaining batter and top with streusel.
  5. Bake at 350°F for 45 to 50 minutes, until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
  6. Cool in pan 15 minutes, then invert onto a rack, turn streusel-side up, slice, and serve.

Notes

For the cleanest slices, let the cake cool completely. It tastes even better the next day, when the cinnamon settles deep into the crumb.
