In a small bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon.

Add the melted butter and stir until the mixture forms crumbs.

Evenly sprinkle the streusel over the cake batter.

3. Bake:

Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
