Cinnamon Crumb Topping Recipes

Steps:

• For the dough: Whisk together the bread flour, mashed potato flakes, granulated sugar, cinnamon, yeast and salt in a large bowl. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, add the milk, vanilla and eggs; whisk to break up the eggs. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until the dough just comes together.
• Add the butter, one piece at a time, mixing until incorporated. Continue to mix until the dough comes together in a ball. If the dough is sticking a lot to the sides of the bowl, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until most of the dough no longer sticks. (A little sticking to the bottom of the bowl, beneath the hook, is fine. Adding too much flour will make the buns dry, so use a light hand.)
• Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead by hand until shiny and smooth, 5 to 10 minutes. (The dough should be very soft but not wet and sticky; a little tacky is OK.) Place the dough in a large bowl sprayed with nonstick spray; lightly spray the top of the dough. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm corner of your kitchen until doubled in size, 45 to 60 minutes.
• For the filling: Stir together the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Roll the dough out into a long rectangle, about 10-by-21 inches. Brush with the melted butter, then sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar, followed by 4 cups of frozen Crumble. Starting from a long side, roll the dough into a jelly roll.
• Cut the log into 2-inch pieces and place, cut-side down, in a buttered 10-inch square baking pan. Sprinkle 1 cup of Crumble over the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until puffy and nearly doubled in volume, 30 to 45 minutes
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the buns, loosely wrapped in foil, for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until golden brown on top, about 5 more minutes.
• For the glaze: Meanwhile, combine the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla in a small bowl and stir until smooth.
• While the buns are still warm (but not hot), drizzle with the glaze. Serve warm.
• Combine the all-purpose flour, melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl. Stir together and then work with a spoon or your fingers until the butter is absorbed and the mixture forms clumps. Place in a resealable plastic bag and freeze until needed.

Steps:

• In a bowl, cream almond paste, butter and 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar. Add shortening; beat for 2 minutes. Add egg yolks; mix well. Gradually beat in milk. Combine flour and baking powder; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. In another bowl, beat egg whites until frothy. Beat in remaining sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until stiff peaks form. Fold into batter. Transfer to two greased and floured 8-in. round baking pans., For topping, combine the flour, sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Cut in butter until crumbly; sprinkle over batter. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

Steps:

• Batter: Sift 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, and salt together and set aside. In a separate bowl, beat egg until frothy. Beat in sugar and butter until combined. Add milk, sour cream, and vanilla. Add to flour mixture a little at a time and mix on low until combined. Do not over mix. If the batter is too stiff add a little more milk.
• Streusel topping: Combine last 4 ingredients (make sure your butter for the streusel is chilled) in a small bowl and mix together, then set aside.
• Put 1/2 the batter in a 8x8 - inch greased pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle 1/2 streusel over batter. Repeat. Bake at 350 degrees in a preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Topping with chopped nuts is also an option if you like nuts!

Steps:

• Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer until creamy. Mix flour and cinnamon into creamed butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Store in airtight container in the freezer until needed.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• You will need two muffin pans that hold 12 muffins each. Lightly spray with cooking spray.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter and sugar. Add the vanilla and eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Combine the flour and baking powder together in a bowl and add to the butter, sugar, and egg mixture. Mix on low speed until well blended-the batter will be very thick.
• Divide the batter evenly among the 24 cups. This will fill them about half way.
• For the topping, mix together the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl.
• Add the hard butter and cut it in to the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse crumbs-you can use your hands for this, rubbing it between your fingertips. Don't make it too fine, you want it to have some body to it. Note: I use my hand held pastry blender tool.
• Put about 1 tablespoon of the streusel topping over each cake using up all of the topping;you will not see much of the batter.
• Bake in a preheated oven on two shelves for about 18 minutes, switching shelves after the first 10 minutes.
• They are done when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Do not overbake;start checking them at about 16 minutes.
• Cool 5 minutes in the pans then remove to a cooling rack.

Steps:

• For crust:
• Blend flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder in processor. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Mix 1/4 cup ice water and vinegar in small bowl; add to processor and pulse until moist clumps form, adding more ice water by teaspoonfuls if mixture is dry. Gather dough into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap in plastic and chill at least 1 hour. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled. Soften slightly at room temperature before rolling out.
• Roll out dough on floured work surface to 13-inch round. Transfer to 9-inch-diameter deep-dish glass pie dish. Fold edges under and crimp, forming crust sides 1/4 inch above rim of pie dish. Freeze crust 20 minutes.
• For filling:
• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 375°F. Mix brown sugar, flour, lemon peel, and cinnamon in large bowl. Add apple slices, raisins, and vanilla; toss until well coated. Transfer filling to unbaked crust, mounding filling slightly in center. Bake pie until apples begin to soften, about 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare crumb topping:
• Whisk flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt in small bowl. Add butter and rub in with fingertips until mixture begins to clump together.
• Sprinkle topping evenly over hot pie. Continue to bake pie until apples are tender and topping is browned and crisp, tenting pie with sheet of foil if browning too quickly, about 50 minutes. Cool pie on rack at least 2 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 8 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
• Cut pie into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
• GOOD TO KNOW:
• Don't skip that teaspoon of vinegar in the pie dough-it helps make the finished crust tender.

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix 1 1/2 cups flour, 3/4 cup light-brown sugar, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and cinnamon.
• Cut 1 1/2 sticks chilled unsalted butter into pieces. With your hands, work in butter pieces, until large clumps form. Divide mixture in half; freeze in plastic storage bags.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Whisk flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Add butter and work into dry mixture with your fingertips until pea-sized lumps form. Add oats and mix with your fingertips until clumps form; it should look like crumb topping. Chill 15 minutes.
• Transfer mixture to a parchment-lined sheet tray and bake 8 minutes. Using a metal spatula, stir and toss crumble. Rotate tray and continue to bake until crumble is dark golden brown, about 8 minutes more. Let cool.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together 3/4 cup chopped walnuts, 3/4 cup sugar, and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients until crumbly.
