Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick spray.
Step 2
To make the crumb topping, combine sugars, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk in melted butter. Add flour and stir using a rubber spatula just until moist. Spread out mixture on parchment paper to dry until ready to use.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
Step 4
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar on medium-high until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until well combined. Beat in vanilla until well combined.
Step 5
With the mixer on low speed, add Greek yogurt and dry ingredients alternately in 3 parts, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients, beating just until incorporated.
Step 6
Scoop the batter evenly into prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with reserved topping, using your fingertips to gently press the crumbs into the batter.
Step 7
Place into oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.

To make the glaze, combine brown sugar, vanilla and 2 tablespoons water. Whisk until smooth.

Chef's notes
Giant crumbs are a must; consider starting with the crumbs first.
