So I don’t know about you, but I’m a huge crumb cake fan. The cake is good, but the crumb is just amazing. Oh and let’s not forget the powdered sugar. I can remember eating this at least once a week when I was a kid. I didn’t complain for ice cream or cookies whenever this was in the house.
Crumb cake is definitely a childhood favorite. Not only is it easy to make, but it’s also easy to eat. 🙂 As I type this up I’m wishing I had a piece right now. Unfortunately it didn’t last too long in this house. Usually I’ll just nibble recipes I try just to get a taste, but this I couldn’t help eating two pieces. That’s what a gym membership is for right? Let’s not comment on the hours I spent on the treadmill working this off. Instead let’s talk about the butter.. Yes. Use GOOD butter. This cake took one block of the most amazing butter in the world. Not only is Kerrygold butter amazing just plain on toast, but for baking I find it’s the best.
Okay I’m positive you’ll want to make this, so I’ll tell you how!
I slightly adapted the ingredients which are labeled in bold with the adaption made.’

This recipe is one of the better recipes out there, especially when it comes to the crumb size.
One of the best New York-Style Crumb Cakes my family has been enjoying for years comes from Crumb Cake Creations! They’re actually a New Jersey based bakery which ships throughout the US. I’ve yet to find a crumb cake with larger crumbs than these. Plus, they have a ton of varieties aside from the typical crumb cake you’d expect. Carrot, blueberry jam, red velvet, and pumpkin are just a few of the ones I’ve seen. My favorite happens to be Pumpkin Crumb Cake.
Check them out in time for Easter – you wont be disappointed.

I have some Kerrygold butter right now and I couldn’t decide what to use it for! It looks like I clicked on the right recipe!

Just one thing, you fail to mention the size of the pan you use. Is it a 9″ spring form, a 10″ spring form? Also can you sub the size of the pan? Can you use a 13×9, an 8″ square or round???
We used a standard 8×8 pan, you could use another pan but it won’t have as much height in a larger pan.
