Ingredients

Directions

  2. Add the chilled, cubed butter or margarine to the dry mixture.
  3. Using a pastry blender, two forks, or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour mixture. Work quickly to keep the butter cold.
  4. Continue blending until the mixture resembles coarse meal with some larger pea-sized clumps. Do not overmix into a dough.
  5. Transfer the crumb topping mix to an airtight container. Label with the date and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 months, or freeze for longer storage.
