Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, 1 cup of sugar, and baking powder. If desired, add salt and cinnamon. Cut in the butter and egg using a fork or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press half of the crumb mixture into the prepared pan.
