Crumb cake is delicious on its own, but topped with fresh berries, it’s out of this world. In this version of the classic, the ingredients come together quickly and with minimal effort. Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing and serving. It's just as good for breakfast or brunch as it for dessert or even as a special addition to afternoon coffee or tea.
