To make the streusel, line a quarter baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, sugar and cinnamon until combined. Using your fingers, rub in room temperature butter until incorporated and large clumps form when you press the mixture together. Spread onto prepared baking sheet and refrigerate for 20 minutes or freeze for 10 minutes.
