Sprinkle with the reserved crumb mixture. It's a simple coffee cake that has buttermilk in the batter and is topped with fresh fruit of choice (I like tart cherries) and sweet crumbs or streusel. A streusel is simply a crumbly topping made by combining flour, sugar, butter, and sometimes spices like cinnamon (although not in this recipe) until crumbly. The crumb topping's ingredients (butter, flour, & sugar) is essentially the cake's ingredients without any liquid. A recipe deriving both cake and crumb topping from the same mixture was a selling point for me.
