Instructions
Pumpkin Bread
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a 9×5″ loaf pan with parchment paper and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Whisk together the dry ingredients, flour through the spices, in a medium sized bowl.
- In a large bowl, use an electric hand mixer to combine the pumpkin puree, both sugars, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Add half of the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir to combine. Then stir in the milk and then the remaining dry ingredients. Stir until you have a smooth and well combined batter.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 1 hour 15 min or until a skewer comes out clean when poked in the center of the bread. Allow to cool completely before adding the icing.
Maple Icing
- In a small bowl or measuring cup add all the icing ingredients. Whisk together until smooth. Pour the icing evenly over the cooled pumpkin bread. Enjoy!
