Dissolve yeast & 1 tbsp. sugar in 1/2 cup warm milk. Mix flour and remaining sugar in a separate bowl. Add melted shortening and stir. Add approximately 2 cups of warm milk (enough to make texture like a soft biscuit dough). Add yeast mixture. Beat and add whole egg (if using); beat some more. Cover with cloth and let rise in a warm place for one hour or until double in size. Then beat until no air bubbles are left. Spread thinly in a glass pan. Mix crumble topping ingredients to meal-like texture, sprinkle on top of coffee cake. Bake at 375º for 25-35 minutes until golden brown.
