Ingredients
Scale

- 1 large egg (at room temperature)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed)

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a non-stick donut pan with baking spray.
- In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar, flour, and cinnamon for the crumb topping. Add cold butter and work into the mixture until it resembles coarse meal. Chill in the freezer.

- Gently fold wet ingredients into dry until just combined; avoid overmixing.
- Fill each donut mold with batter and top with chilled crumb mixture.
