This is the kind of cake you want to wake up to on a Sunday morning. You want to slice off a piece and eat it right then and there, still warm, straight out of the pan, picking off chunks with your fingers, crumbs falling all over the place. And it's OK. Pair it with a steaming cup of coffee and you're ready to start your day.
This is the kind of cake that you don't mind eating leftovers of, warmed up slightly, with a huge scoop of your favorite vanilla ice cream, melting into the sweet, crunchy crumb. Sharing it makes it even tastier.
This is the kind of cake that you can't wait to make again with every kind of sweet, ripe, summer berry under the sun. Combined with orange, lemon or lime zest, you could have a different taste combination for just about any occasion.
Sihan of Befuddlement chose this versatile cake as this week's Tuesdays with Dorie recipe. Please visit her blog! And check out the rest of the TWD gang for further crumb cake inspiration. Then grab your mixer and bake a crumb cake!

j'adore les saveurs que tu y as mises ! nous aussi avons apprécié ( et dévoré ) ce gâteau.
La texture est vraiment extra :)
I agree, it was so delicious warm, but then again, what isn't! Your pictures look really good. You can really tell how crunchy your top was.
Yours looks perfect, and yes, I would want to get up and have a slice of that also! I could not get mine to set in the middle...I will have to try it again, by the time it set, it was too brown. Seeing yours means I should try it again as yours looks gorgeous.
Well, I don't know what I did, but my comment just appeared as Anonymous...sorry about that...Kayte

Raspberry and lime....what a brilliant idea.

Great result and a great combination of flavours.

I love your birds-eye-view photos that feature the delicious crumb topping on this cake.
Raspberry and lime -- great idea!
Wow! Raspberry and lime sounds so good!
Yes, yes, yes -- this is that cake indeed! Yours looks amazing; I am dying over your raspberry/lime combo. Must make that version ASAP!
Oh yes, I could make this many times! Yours looks beautiful. :)
That looks delicious. Raspberries are my favorite. I wanted to do lime with my blackberries, but it turned out I didn't have any. Oops. =)
Great looking cake...I really love that last picture! I bet the raspberry/lime combo was great!!

Raspberry and lime sounds great. We had ours warm, cold, and with ice cream too.
I like when my family wakes up with fresh smell of homemade goodies. That cake would make them happy.
C'est vrai que le meilleur de ce gâteau, c'est que ne sachant pas si c'est réellement un gâteau dessert ou un gâteau brunch... on peut en manger quand on veut, sans trop se sentir coupable! LOL LOL
Enfin, je n'ai restreint personne cette fois-ci, chez moi!
Superbe comme d'hab, LyB!
Oooh raspberry lime sounds great! And I'm totally with you--I can't wait to make this again with as many different variations as I can come up with.

I was going to take that same shot of the pan of cake with a piece gone, but then I just kept picking and nibbling until half the darn cake was gone!
You had me at Raspberry Lime you know. I love anything with those 2 things in it! It's beautiful!

Gorgeous crumb cake there! It looks like it's bursting right out of the pan with goodness :)
Beautiful pictures! They make me so sad that it's breakfast time and I don't have a slice of that lovely cake.
