Ingredients

1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup brown sugar packed, light or dark brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon if you want a more pronounced cinnamon flavor add 2 teaspoons
1/2 cup oats (optional) or chopped nuts

Instructions

Place butter in a small saucepan over medium low heat. Once melted stir in remaining ingredients with a fork and stir until evenly combined.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2 weeks. Or place in the freezer and remove when ready to use.

Notes

Use over cakes, coffee cakes, muffins, pies, cookies. This is enough to top about 18 muffins or cover an 8x8 inch cake. If you want to cover a 9x13 I suggest 1.5x the recipe.

Can store in the freezer in a ziplock bag to use at a later time. (Perfect for holidays like prepping for Thanksgiving... can make this in advance and then pull it out of the freezer and use atop pies or whatever you need!)
