Pumpkin Bread

  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ¾ cup all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Cinnamon Swirl

  • 2 tablespoon sugar

Streusel Topping

  • ¼ cup butter soft
  • ¾ cup flour
  • 2 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat Oven to 325℉. Butter and line the insides of a bread loaf pan with parchment paper on the bottom and sides.
  • In a large bowl put in all the wet ingredients including sugars. Combine until everything has been mixed, making sure to scrape the sides and bottom.
  • Add in all the dry ingredients last and then mix and scrape. Let the batter sit to the side.
  • For the cinnamon swirl just mix the sugars and cinnamon together.
  • To make the streusel get a medium sized bowl and combine all the ingredients. You should be

Assembly

  • Pour or scoop ⅓ of the batter into the loaf pan, spread and add in ⅓ of the cinnamon swirl mixture. Repeat process until the batter is done.
  • With a chopstick or butter knife just gently swirl the batter so it just spreads and swirls. Top with the streusel pushing it into the batter lightly to let it stick.
  • Bake the pumpkin bread in the middle rack of the oven for 1 hr. After 1 hour check with a toothpick and adjust time as needed until fully cooked through. (Please see notes)
  • Once done allow it to fully cool and then slice and enjoy.
  • When the bread is fresh out of the oven the streusel is crisp. If consuming the next day, you can still toast the bread to achieve a similar texture.
    Wrap the bread or place in storage container for up to 3 to 4 days.

Notes

Bake times: 
350F:  The pumpkin bread will bake for 1hr and 20 minutes at this temperature streusel will brown more. 
325F: The pumpkin bread will bake for 1hr and 40 minutes at this temperature and the streusel will be a golden light brown. 
Baking pan:
I use a 1lb bread loaf pan. It's 8.5 x 4.5in vs a regular loaf pan is 9.5 x 5in.
Please adjust time accordingly to the pan and oven bake time you choose. 
 
**Feel free to make the pumpkin bread recipe without the streusel and the cinnamon swirl. The pumpkin bread will still be amazing!
