Submitted by Boomette

"From the blog Heather's Dish. It looks so yummy. I'll have to try it :)"

 

• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• For the cake

• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons plain yogurt
• 1 egg white
• 2 1⁄2 tablespoons flour
• 1⁄8 teaspoon baking powder
• 1⁄8 teaspoon salt

• For the streusel

• 2 tablespoons butter, cut into small cubes
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon flour
• 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon
• cream cheese frosting (optional)

directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 and spray the inside of an 8 oz. wide-mouth mason jar with nonstick spray (if you don’t have a jar you can certainly use an oven-safe ramekin, but make sure you watch it as it will likely bake faster).
2. Whisk together the sugar, yogurt, egg white and vanilla until smooth.
3. Fold in the flour, baking powder and salt until everything is combined. For the streusel, mix together the cubed butter pieces, brown sugar, cinnamon and flour and using your fingers work the butter into the dry ingredients until a fine crumb forms.
4. Pour half of the batter into the bottom of the jar, top with 1/3 of the streusel mixture, top with the remaining batter and then top the entire thing off with the remaining streusel mixture.
5. Place on a baking sheet lined with foil and bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
6. Let cool before eating, and be careful…the jar will be hot! You can top it with a cream cheese frosting.

What a cute idea and so easy to make! Made as written (minus the frosting) and it was wonderful! Just the right amount of cinnamon and sweetness. Will make these again for a brunch or holiday breakfast. Made for PRMR.
