Ingredients
- Streusel: 1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour, 6 tbsp (80g) light or dark brown sugar, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp kosher salt, 1/4 cup (57g) unsalted butter (melted)
- Bread: 1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree, 3/4 cup (150g) vegetable oil, 1 cup (213g) light brown sugar, 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 1/2 tsp baking powder, 3/4 tsp baking soda, 3/4 tsp kosher salt, 5 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg, 1/4 tsp ground ginger, pinch ground cloves, 2 cups (260g) all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Make Streusel: Whisk flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in melted butter until crumbly; chill.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×5 loaf pan.
- Whisk pumpkin puree, oil, sugars, and eggs until smooth.
- Add baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves; whisk well.
- Fold in flour until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spread batter in loaf pan. Sprinkle chilled streusel evenly on top.
- Bake 65–80 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Tent with foil if browning too quickly.
- Cool 10–15 minutes in pan, then lift out and cool completely before slicing.
Notes
Tip: Chill the streusel before topping to ensure a crunchy bake. Add chopped pecans or walnuts for extra texture. Store at room temp 3 days, refrigerate 5 days, or freeze slices up to 2 months.
