Ingredients

For the Bread:

  • 1 cup flour
  • ¾ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 ounces cream cheese cut into pieces
  • 2 large eggs
  • cup milk

For the Topping:

  • cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 tablespoon butter softened
  • ¾ teaspoon cinnamon
  • teaspoon salt

Instructions

For the Bread:

  • Preheat oven to 350º Fahrenheit.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and baking soda together. Set aside.
  • Put a medium-sized pan over medium heat and add oil.
  • When oil is heated, add pumpkin, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and pumpkin pie spice.
  • Be sure to continuously stir for about 6 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and add sugar, brown sugar and cream cheese.
  • Stir until mixture is smooth. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.
  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk the milk and eggs.
  • Add to the pumpkin mixture.
  • Add flour mixture and stir until combined.
  • Pour batter into a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes, adding the topping after 15 minutes.
  • To prepare topping, combine all ingredients in a small bowl. (I used my hands and it worked well).
  • Bread is done with a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Allow the bread to cool for 20 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Grease your pan with cooking spray or butter so the bread doesn’t stick to the pan after baking. 
  • I recommend using canned pumpkin or pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling. The spices and sugars won’t mix well with the other ingredients. 
  • Place a piece of plastic wrap over the bread and then place it in an airtight container. Keep the bread at room temperature for up to 4 days.
