Crumb cakes derive from the traditional German cake known as Streuselkuchen, and feature a 'Streusel' topping, which is a loose crumble of flour, sugar and butter. This version has a filling of fig, pecan and cinnamon that gives it a unique flavor and wonderfully soft and juicy texture that perfectly complements the light crunch of the crumble topping.
