Cinnamon Coffeecake

2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup shortening
1 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup yogurt

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and shortening in a bowl. Crumble the ingredients together just like you would if you were making a pie crust.

Remove 1/3 cup of the crumbs for the topping. Add the cinnamon to this and set aside.

In another bowl combine the milk with the yogurt and baking soda. Mix well.

Add this to the dry mixture and stir until just combined.

Pour in to a greased 9-inch square baking dish. Sprinkle the cinnamon crumb mixture on top and bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown.
