Ingredients

Cake

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup cold unsalted butter (1 stick)
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Filling/Topping

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

For the Cake

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large bowl mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In a separate bowl mix together the milk, yogurt and vanilla. Use a whisk to get the lumps of yogurt blended smooth.
  • Use a butter knife to cut the cold butter into cubes. Add to the flour mixture. Use a pastry blender to work the butter into the flour. The flour will look sandy with little pea size pieces of butter.
  • Pour milk mixture into the flour mixture and use a spatula to mix together. Do not over mix batter. Just mix until no streaks of flour remain. You will still see the pieces of butter.
  • Grease a square baking pan. Pour ½ of batter into prepared pan and set aside while mixing the filling and topping.

For the Filling/Topping

  • In a small bowl add all of the ingredients together. Use the pastry blender again to cut the butter into the flour. Again it will look a little clumpy with little pieces of butter.
  • Sprinkle half of the filling over the batter. Top the remaining batter over top of the filling. Then sprinkle the remaining topping over the top.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle come out clean.
  • Allow to cool for 10 minutes before cutting into squares.
