• For the Crumb Topping

• 1  cup all-purpose flour
• 1⁄4 cup dark brown sugar
• 1⁄4 granulated sugar
• 1 1⁄2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
• 1⁄2 cup unsalted butter, softened

• For the Cake Batter

• 1 (10 ounce) can almond paste

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F Grease a 10-inch tube pan. Line the bottom with a disk of parchment paper.
2. For the topping, combine the flour, sugars, cinnamon, butter and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Processes until all the ingredients are well combined. The mixture will resemble fine moist crumbs.
3. For the cake batter, beat the Almond Paste with the sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer until well combined, approximately 2 minutes. Add the butter and beat until fluffy. Beat in the eggs. Scrape the bowl then stir in the milk. Fold in the baking powder, flour and vanilla.
4. Spread the batter into the pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out dry, approximately 50 to 60 minute. Cool on a rack then unmold.
5. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
