Ingredients
  

Cinnamon Sugar

  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Streusel

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 4 tsp cinnamon
  • ½ cup salted butter, melted

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Sour cream
  • ½ cup buttermilk

Batter

  • ½ Cup Softened Butter
  • 1 Cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla
  • 2 cup flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • powdered sugar optional

Instructions
 

Prep

  • Preheat oven to 350°
  • In a bowl, make cinnamon sugar by combing cinnamon and brown sugar. Set aside
  • In another bowl, make streusel. Combine all streusel ingredients and mix with a fork till clumpy. Set aside.
  • In yet another bowl, prep dairy mixture. Whisk buttermilk and sour cream and set aside.

Batter

  • In a stand mixer, combine sugar and butter.
  • Add eggs and vanilla and mix again.
  • Add the dry ingredients and then slightly incorporate in the mixer. Do not over mix, only turn it on for a few seconds to moisten the flour a bit.
  • Remove the bowl from the mixer and pour the milk batter in. Using a silicone spatula, slowly mix all ingredients till a thick batter is formed.

Assembly

  • In a pan (see note about my mistake), line tray with parchment paper.
  • Add a layer of batter into the pan and spread to the corners.
  • Sprinkle all of the cinnamon sugar.
  • Add another layer of batter trying not to move the layer of cinnamon sugar and spread batter evenly.
  • Sprinkle on streusel.
  • Bake at 350° for 45 minutes to an hour. MAYBE LONGER, Insert a toothpick till it comes out clean! (again read my note about my mistake!)
