Ingredients

Scale

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup dark brown sugar, lightly packed
1 cup pumpkin puree
2 large eggs
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1½ cups all-purpose flour
6 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted (for streusel)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour (for streusel)
1/2 cup brown sugar (for streusel)
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon (for streusel)
1 cup confectioners’ sugar (for glaze)
1/4 tsp maple extract (for glaze)
1 Tbsp maple syrup (for glaze)
1 Tbsp milk or cream (for glaze)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and grease an 8- or 9-inch loaf pan.
Cream the softened butter and brown sugar until smooth.
Add pumpkin puree and eggs. Mix until smooth.
In a separate bowl, mix cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and 1½ cups flour.
Fold the dry mix into the wet mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
Make the streusel by mixing melted butter, 3/4 cup flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and pumpkin pie spice until it looks like wet sand.
Drop the streusel over the batter in small clumps.
Bake for 55–60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool the bread on a wire rack.
Make the glaze by whisking confectioners’ sugar, maple extract, maple syrup, and milk until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bread before serving.

Notes

Add butter or cream cheese on a slice for extra richness. It also maintains well, making it great for snacks or breakfast.
