Our Swedish cousin Margareta taught us this simple, but yummy, recipe. If you love cardamom, you will love this!
I absolutely love this cake! I think this is the perfect coffee or tea cake & will use this as the base for strawberry shortcake. The cardamom is not overpowering and, while I thought buttering the pan and using bread crumbs were odd, they gave the cake a buttery crunch which I loved (next time I'll be sure to use unsalted butter, though). I did not bother with the "topping" because I did not want the cinnamon to affect the cardamom.

Very tasty cake, this recipe has gone into my 2-ring binder of go-to cooking.
