Combine the dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Add the oil, eggs, and vanilla to a large measuring cup. Now add milk until 2 cups is reached. Mix and add to the dry ingredients. Mix until combined and smooth.

Remove ¾ cup of batter and pour into a small bowl. Add the brown sugar and cinnamon. and mix.

Add all ingredients for the streusel crumb topping to a small bowl and mix with a fork until it comes together into clumps. If it looks like sand, keep mixing until it makes clumps. Be patient, it will come together.

Pour the main batter into the pan. Pour the second cinnamon batter over into the main batter in a large zig zag across the pan. Swirl by running a knife back and forth through both batters a few times. Sprinkle the topping over the batter until it is covered evenly. You should not see any batter. You may have a little bit left over or you can use it all (can you ever have enough?;)
