Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, at room temperature
  • 1 egg, slightly beaten
  • 1 cup fresh buttermilk
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Cinnamon Topping

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Generously butter a 9-inch square baking pan.

2. In a large bowl, with mixer set on medium speed, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the beaten egg. Slowly add buttermilk and mix well with a spoon or whisk. Set aside.

3. Measure the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and sift all into a medium bowl.

4. Stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture and mix until well combined. The batter will be thick. Spread the batter into the baking pan evenly.
