I’ve more than doubled the thickness of the buttery crumb topping. I didn’t want just a small crumb, so you’ll be happy with the generous crumb on this recipe. I also made it a point to create a super moist, melt-in-your mouth cake layer. It has just the right amount of butter, vanilla, sour cream and sweetness to get you craving more of this crumb cake. I really wanted a moist cake layer and a thick crumb layer for this recipe. There is just nothing worse than a dry, crumbly cake in my opinion! I’ve worked out all the kinks, so you don’t have to, to make the most delicious Cinnamon Crumb Cake.

Reasons Why You Will Love My Cinnamon Crumb Cake

It’s a great crowd-pleasing dessert. It’s the perfect treat for breakfast, brunch, served with coffee, or after dinner with scoop of ice cream. It is easy to make. It is so moist that if you have stored it properly, it will be just as moist 2 to 3 days after baking!

What is the difference between crumb cake and coffee cake?

The biggest difference between crumb cake and coffee cake is the crumb. With Crumb Cake, the crumb is bigger and you have so much more crumb that you can pick off the large chunks of crumb and pop them in your mouth (it’s like getting two desserts in one).  On a Coffee Cake, the crumb size is much smaller so you can’t really pick off the crumb. Since we have so much more crumb on a crumb cake, there is more sugar in the recipe, so the crumb cake is sweeter than the coffee cake.
