Old-Fashioned Crumb Cake


3 cups of flour
2 cups of brown sugar
1/2 cup of butter (or vegetable shortening)
1 large egg, beaten
1 cup of buttermilk
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 teaspoon of cream of tartar

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Mix the flour and with the brown sugar. Cut in the butter (or shortening) until the mixture is crumbly.

Take out 1 cup of the crumbs and set it aside for the topping.

Add to the remaining crumbs the egg, the buttermilk, the baking soda and cream of tartar, in that order. Mix well after each addition.

Pour the mixture into a greased 9"x13" baking pan. Sprinkle the reserved crumbs over the top.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
