This delightful strawberry crumb cake brings together tender cake and a crumbly topping for a perfect dessert or snack. It's simple to make and sure to be a hit with family and friends!
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a 9-inch square baking pan. In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, salt, and cinnamon, creating a base for the crumb topping.
In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Then, add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the sour cream until combined.
Gradually incorporate the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing just until blended. Fold in the sliced strawberries delicately to avoid mushiness.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan. In a separate bowl, mix remaining flour, brown sugar, and butter until crumbly to create the topping, then sprinkle generously over the batter.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before slicing and serving. Enjoy your tasty creation!
