Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350F/180C. Grease and flour, spray or line an 8 inch/ 20cm round cake pan.
  2. In a large bowl whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt (and zest if using). Add the butter, egg and vanilla combine to form a crumbly mixture.
  3. Place half the mixture on the bottom of the prepared pan and gently press down. Spread the jam on top and cover with the chopped strawberries. Cover with the remaining crumb mixture.
  4. Bake for approximately 30-35 minutes or until golden on top. Let cool 20-25 minutes in the pan then move to a clean plate to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use a fork, pastry blender or clean hands to form the crumbs.
  • Depending on the flour some flours absorb moisture differently and you may need to add some extra butter or even an extra egg if necessary. Remember the dough should be crumbly and not compact.
  • This strawberry crumb cake recipe is delicious at room temperature or warm! Make it even better by adding some whipped cream or a scoop of no churn vanilla ice cream.
  • Store leftover fresh strawberry crumb cake in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. You may get a few extra days out of it by placing it in the refrigerator! 
  • Cool cake completely then wrap in plastic wrap and store in a freezer safe container for up to a month. Thaw before serving. The topping will not be as crunchy but it will still be delicious!
