Yield Makes enough topping for one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cut into 1/4-inch cubes

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Using a pastry blender, incorporate the butter by "cutting it in" to the flour until the butter forms small, pea-size pieces.
  • Pair this topping with a traditional pastry pie shell and the filling of your choice. Once the filling has been placed in the pie shell, sprinkle the cinnamon sugar crumb topping evenly over the filling until it is completely covered. Bake as directed.
