Make the streusel: In a small mixing bowl, combine the 1/2 cup flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp salt. Scatter the cold butter cubes over the top and work them in with a fork or your fingertips until the mixture forms coarse, pea-sized clumps. Refrigerate while you prepare the batter.
