- 3 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¾ C sugar

- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- Streusel Filling:
- ½ C brown sugar

- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Cut in the butter until the mixture is like fine cornmeal. In a small bowl beat egg, milk, and vanilla. Blend into the dry ingredients and stir just until incorporated.
- For the filling: In a medium bowl mix the sugar, flour, and cinnamon together. Drizzle in the butter. Add nuts. Mix well.
- Spoon half the mixture into a cooking sprayed and floured 8 inch square baking dish. Sprinkle with half of the filling. Spoon on the remaining batter over streusel, gently spread. Top with remaining filling. Bake 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Until light touch springs back in the center. Enjoy!
