Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. Mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt in a bowl. Stir in the melted butter, then lightly mix in the flour with a fork until crumbs form. Do not overmix. Refrigerate or freeze until needed.
3. Whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt together. Set aside.
4. Beat the softened butter and granulated sugar on high speed until light and creamy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the bowl.
5. Add the eggs, sour cream and vanilla and beat on medium-high until combined; the mixture may look curdled. Scrape down the bowl again.
6. On low speed, mix in the dry ingredients until smooth. Do not overmix; the batter will be thick.
7. Toss the chopped apples with the 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon.
8. Spread the batter evenly in the pan, top with the cinnamon apples, then the crumb topping, pressing the crumbs gently into the cake.
9. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. If the top or edges brown too fast, loosely cover with foil.
10. Cool on a rack for at least 30 to 45 minutes before slicing. Drizzle with icing if you like.
