  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the wet ingredients: melted butter, sour cream, egg, and vanilla.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined.
  5. Spread half of the batter into the baking dish and layer with apple pie filling, then top with remaining batter.
  6. Mix the streusel ingredients in a bowl and sprinkle over the cake batter.
