Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat an 8-inch round cake pan with cooking spray.
Lightly spoon flour into a measuring cup, level with a knife. Combine flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Reserve ½ cup of the flour mixture for topping; set aside.
Combine the remaining flour mixture, baking powder, and baking soda; add the vanilla yogurt (or buttermilk), vanilla, and egg to the flour mixture. Beat at medium speed with a hand mixer until well blended.
Spoon batter into the prepared cake pan. Sharply tap the pan once on the counter to remove air bubbles. Sprinkle the reserved ½ cup flour mixture over the batter.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the cake springs back when touched lightly in the center. Cool on a wire cooling rack. Enjoy.
