Homemade Crumb Cake (Amish)
<http://www.oasisnewsfeatures.com/homemade-crumb-cake/>
I think Hostess used to sell little individually wrapped crumb cakes,
which I remember enjoying as a child. But some mass produced confection
is never as good as the real thing. Crumb cakes are especially popular
among the Amish of Pennsylvania and that is where this recipe comes to
me from. Let us know if you decide to try this at home, I'd like to know
how it turns out.
3 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1 /2 cups sugar
1 /2 to 2/3 cup butter
3 large eggs
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Sift the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Cut in butter until the
mixture has the consistency of coarse meal or small peas . Reserve about
1 ½ cups of this mixture. Combine the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract
and stir into the remainder of the dry blend just until everything is
moistened. Pour into 2 well-buttered 10-inch pie pans. Brush the top of
the dough with melted butter and sprinkle with the reserved crumb
mixture. Bake in a 350°oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until cake is done
or a toothpick comes out clean.
