Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8-inch metal baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a two-inch overhang on each side.
For the crumb topping: Combine flour, both sugars, and salt in a medium bowl and whisk to blend evenly. Add melted butter and stir until combined, then toss with your fingertips to form large crumbs. Cover with a tea towel and set aside.
For the cake batter: In a medium mixing bowl, combine melted butter, sugar, and vanilla. Whisk until pale and fluffy. Whisk in eggs one at a time until very light and creamy. Mix in sour cream.
Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into another bowl; whisk to blend. Add this mixture to the wet ingredients using a spatula until mostly incorporated. Pour in milk; fold until evenly combined. Spread batter into the prepared pan.
For the strawberry layer: Combine flour with sugar; sprinkle over chopped strawberries. Toss until evenly coated. Scatter strawberries over the batter in the pan evenly.
Scatter clumps of crumb topping evenly over the strawberries to cover them fully.
Bake for about 40–50 minutes until crumbs are golden brown and firm to touch. A toothpick inserted should come out clean without wet batter. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
