Instructions
 

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients: flour, sugars, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  • In another bowl, mix wet ingredients: pumpkin puree, eggs, oil (or butter), and vanilla until smooth.
  • Pour wet mixture into dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  • Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 60-70 minutes.
  • Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out clean.
  • Let the bread cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  • Prepare the glaze by mixing powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk/cream until smooth.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread and let it set before slicing.

Notes

Avoid overmixing the batter for a light loaf. Ensure ingredients are at room temperature for best results.
