Ingredients

Scale
    • Pumpkin Bread Base:
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 1 cup dark brown sugar
    • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree
    • 2 large eggs, room temperature
    • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

 

    • Streusel Topping:
    • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
    • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 cup brown sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon

 

  • Maple Glaze:
  • 1 cup confectioners’ sugar, sifted
  • 1/4 teaspoon maple extract
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon milk or heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and line an 8×4 or 9×5 loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. Cream butter and brown sugar with mixer for 1 minute until fluffy.
  3. Add pumpkin puree and mix until combined. Beat in eggs one at a time.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add to wet mixture and mix just until combined.
  5. Prepare streusel: Mix melted butter, flour, brown sugar, and spice until crumbly.
  6. Spread batter evenly into prepared pan. Sprinkle streusel evenly on top.
  7. Bake 55–60 minutes, until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Cool completely on wire rack. Whisk glaze ingredients and drizzle over cooled bread before serving.

Notes

Avoid overmixing batter to prevent dense texture. Always cool bread fully before glazing to avoid sogginess.
