CRUMBLE TOPPING:
Topping option #1
Place the flour, brown sugar, sugar, oats, cinnamon, and salt into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse a few times to combine. Add the butter cubes and pulse until the butter is totally mixed in and the mixture is crumbly.
Topping option #2
Place the flour, brown sugar, sugar, oats, cinnamon, and salt into a large bowl. Add the butter and cut it into the mixture with either a pastry cutter, two knives, or your hands. Continue until the butter is totally mixed in and the mixture is crumbly.
Spread the crumb topping evenly over the top of the cake in the baking pan..
Bake for 45 minutes until the top is completely set and lightly browned.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it sit in the pan for 10 minutes. This is important because as the cake cools, the crumble topping with become firm and will not fall off when you turn the cake over.
To remove the cake from the pan, place a sheet of wax paper over a baking rack. Place the lined rack over the top of the cake. Turn the cake upside down onto the wax paper. Pull the pan off of the cake. Place a second baking rack on top of the overturned cake. Lift both racks and turn them over. Remove the top rack and take off the wax paper.
Notes
In order for the crumb topping to work the butter must be very cold.
