Lanie, we did it both ways in the test kitchen, and either is fine. Personally, I like to do it before the rise, since otherwise I may forget and stick the babka in the oven naked! And I didn't find the streusel weighs it down and hinders rising, so don't worry about that. Thanks for noticing that discrepancy, though. PJH
