What it is
Streusel topping is a crumbly mixture typically made from flour, sugar, and butter or oil. It is often flavored with spices like cinnamon. The ingredients are combined until they form coarse crumbs, which are then sprinkled over baked goods before or after baking.
Why it's used
Streusel topping is used to add a sweet, crunchy texture and flavor to baked goods. Manufacturers add it to cakes, muffins, coffee cakes, and fruit crisps. It can also be used as a topping for ice cream or other desserts.
Health notes
Streusel topping is generally considered safe for consumption. The FDA has not established specific regulations for streusel topping as a whole, as it is a mixture of common food ingredients. The individual components, such as flour, sugar, and butter, are widely consumed and regulated. High consumption of streusel topping may contribute to increased intake of sugar and saturated fat, which aligns with general dietary guidance to limit these components.
Allergen info
Streusel topping typically contains wheat and may contain dairy (butter) or soy (oil), which are among the 9 FDA major allergens. It is not inherently gluten-free due to the presence of wheat flour.
