Streusel:

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup white sugar

  • 1/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed

Cake:

  • cooking spray

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature

  • 1/4 cup white sugar

  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar

  • 2 large eggs, room temperature

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
