Directions

To the remaining crumb mixture, add the buttermilk, egg, baking soda, and salt.

Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan. Pour the batter into the pan and spread it evenly.

Sprinkle the reserved 1/2 cup of crumb topping evenly over the batter.

Bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let cool slightly in the pan before serving. Enjoy warm or cold.
