Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1.5 teaspoons quality salt
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • Dash of nutmeg
  • 1 cup room temperature salted butter
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • 2.5 cups pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie mix
  • 2 eggs or 6 tablespoons of aquafaba, which is what we used here.

For the glaze

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons of milk or even vanilla coffee creamer (I used an almond milk vanilla coffee creamer here)

Instructions

To make the batter:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Dump all of the ingredients into your mixing bowl at the same time and stir just until everything is combined, being sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl to incorporate everything.
  • Grease and flour the loaf pan.
  • Bake the bread for about 55 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean the top of perfectly golden with a light crust.
  • Allow bread to cool for 10 minutes in their pans before turning out onto a cooling rack.

To make the glaze for the bread:

  • Mix ½ cup powdered sugar with 1-2 tablespoons of milk or even vanilla coffee creamer (I used an almond milk vanilla coffee creamer here).
  • Pour over the top of the still slightly warm bread and allow the glaze to run down the sides, it should set within a few minutes and be ready to cut within 10 to 15 minutes.

Notes

You can either double this recipe for four loaves or cut it in half for one loaf.
