PUMPKIN STREUSEL BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lower your middle oven rack to the lower position. *Under the middle of the oven, but not the bottom position.Coat a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray or a light amount of oil.
• Mix the streusel using brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and butter. Set aside in the refrigerator.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and dried orange peel.
• Whisk the dry ingredients to evenly distribute throughout the flour.
• In a medium mixing bowl add the sugar, light or dark brown sugar, pumpkin puree, melted and cooled butter, eggs, and vanilla extract.
• Mix the wet ingredients together until you have what looks like a thicker pumpkin puree.
• Add the wet ingredients into the large bowl of dry ingredients and stir to combine.
• Transfer the pumpkin bread batter into your prepared loaf pan and smooth the top, tamping the pan down on the counter if needed.
• Top the batter with streusel then bake in your preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 1 hour. The bread is done when a knife inserted into the thickest portion of bread comes out clean.
• Remove the baked pumpkin streusel bread when done, and cool in the pan on a wire cooling rack for 15-20 minutes before serving. Transfer the loaf to the wire cooling rack and allow to cool completely before storing.
