Ingredients

Scale

For the Streusel Topping:

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled

1⁄3 cup** all purpose flour plus 2 tablespoons
1⁄4 cup light brown sugar
2 1⁄2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
pinch of kosher salt

For the Pumpkin Batter: 

1⁄2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled

2 cups** all purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup pure pumpkin puree
2 large eggs, room temperature
1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup granulated sugar
1⁄4 cup packed light brown sugar


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Grease and then line a 9×5 baking pan with parchment paper so that the edges of the parchment hang over the two longer sides of the pan.
  2. In a microwave safe dish, melt the 1⁄2 cup unsalted butter for the bread and set aside to cool.
  3. In a separate microwave safe bowl, melt the butter for the streusel topping.
  4. Once melted add the flour, sugars, pumpkin pie spice, and salt to the bowl with the butter for the streusel topping. Using a fork, mix to create the streusel topping. Place in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  5. To make the bread, in a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, pie spice, and salt. Set aside.
  6. In a separate bowl mix together the pumpkin puree and eggs until combined.
  7. Add vanilla, sugars, and melted butter and mix until fully combined.
  8. Add the whisked dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until you can no longer see flour.
  9. Pour mixture into prepared loaf pan and remove streusel mixture from the refrigerator.
  10. Using the fork, mix up the streusel mixture and gently spread over the top of the bread loaf covering it completely.
  11. Bake for 70 to 80 minutes or until a toothpick placed in the center of the loaf comes out clean with little crumb. At around 50-60 minutes cover the top loosely with tin foil to keep the streusel topping from getting too brown while the middle of the bread still bakes. Make sure to check your loaf around 50 minutes because oven temperatures do vary.
  12. Let the pumpkin loaf cool for 20 minutes in the pan and then using the parchment paper, gently remove the loaf from the pan and place on a cooling rack to finish cooling.
  13. Before slicing let the pumpkin loaf cool for about one hour.
  14. Enjoy!
