- For the crumb topping: Put the flour, brown sugar, apple pie spice and salt in a small bowl and stir to combine.

Reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the sour cream in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the flour. Beat until just incorporated.
- Spoon half of the cake batter (it will be very thick) into the prepared pan and smooth with an offset spatula. Dollop the apple butter on top and carefully smooth with the spatula. Spoon the remaining cake batter on top and smooth the top. Sprinkle on the crumb topping.
