Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°. Spray a loaf pan with cooking spray. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, mix together the melted butter, apple sauce, sour cream, vanilla, and egg until thoroughly combined. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, making sure not to over mix. Pour into prepared loaf pan. For the streusel, combine the flour, sugars, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Use a pastry blender to cut the frozen butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles small peas.

Bake for 50-55 minutes or until a knife comes out clean.
