- In separate bowl, mix together streusel ingredients.
- Pour cake batter into each prepared loaf pan, filling the pans only one-third full.
- Sprinkle streusel mixture on top of batter. Top with remaining batter. The pans will now be two-thirds full.
- Bake 40 to 60 minutes or until toothpick inserted into cakes comes out clean.
