Stir baking powder, baking soda, salt, sour cream, almond extract and egg into remaining crumb mixture. Spread batter over bottom and 2 inches up side (about 1/4 inch thick) of pan.

A wonderful brunch cake or dessert and stores well. Tastes great when frozen, also. I did not have the suggested preserves on hand so I substituted with what I had on hand, a jelly & it was delicious. Tried it again with a blackberry jam and it was great this is becoming a family favorite.

This went over really well at a ladies' brunch at my church. One lady liked it so much that I made her another one! I didn't have the almonds to put on top, but really never missed them!
