How to Make Cranberry and Orange Crumb Cake
In a medium mixing bowl mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the cinnamon, nutmeg & ginger. Mix until combined. Add melted butter. Add the orange juice & zest. Mix until combined. Add the eggs. Add the cranberries.
Mix until combined. Transfer cake batter to prepared baking pan; spreading it evenly over the pan. Top with the cranberry jam by gently smoothing over the surface of the cake (you may have to warm it slightly to make it easily spread). Hand squeeze small handfuls of crumb topping together to form small clumps. Drop topping clumps evenly over cake batter & cranberry sauce, covering with a thick layer of topping.
Bake 1 hour or until a tester comes out clean and topping is golden brown and a little crisp
Cool before topping with powdered sugar and serve. Enjoy every last bite!
