OLD FASHIONED CRUMB CAKE 
2 1/4 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 c. brown sugar, packed
3/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. oil
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 c. buttermilk
1 tsp. baking powder

Sift together flour, salt and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a large bowl. Add brown and granulated sugars and oil. Mix at medium speed with electric mixer or with spoon until well blended and fluffy.

Measure out 3/4 cup of this mixture for topping, add remaining 1 teaspoon cinnamon and nutmeg to it. Add soda, baking powder, egg and buttermilk to remaining flour mixture and stir until smooth.

Turn into a well-greased 9 x 13 inch baking pan and level the top. Sprinkle with topping mixture and press in lightly. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes until the top springs back when touched. Cut into squares and serve warm with butter. Serves 12.
