Ingredients
  

Pumpkin loaf

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 can pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • ½ cup neutral vegetable oil
  • 2 beaten eggs

Streusel topping (optional)

  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons roasted salted pumpkin seeds

Glaze (optional)

  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

Instructions
 

Make the pumpkin loaf and streusel topping

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉ and spray a standard 9x5 inch bread loaf pan with cooking spray.
  • Add the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon to a large mixing bowl and stir well.
  • Add the pumpkin puree, white sugar, vegetable oil and beaten eggs to the mixing bowl and mix by hand or with a mixer on low until integrated. Pour into the bread loaf pan.
  • Make the streusel topping by combing the all-purpose flour, brown sugar and melted butter into a small bowl. Mix until crumbly. Sprinkle evenly over the pumpkin loaf. Sprinkle the pumpkin seeds over the streusel topping.
  • Bake for 50-55 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

Make the glaze

  • The glaze can be drizzled on the loaf while the loaf is warm or cool.
  • Combine the brown sugar, white sugar and heavy whipping cream in a small, microwaveable bowl. Heat for 30 seconds and stir well. If the mixture is not fully melted and integrated, continue to heat in 15 second increments until melted and integrated.
  • Drizzle the glaze on top of the streusel. Wait until the glaze firms and the loaf cools to cut and serve.
