Description
This Brown Butter Pumpkin Bread is a moist and flavorful autumn treat made with rich browned butter, pumpkin puree, warm pumpkin spice, and a sweet maple glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp pumpkin spice
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tbsp brown butter, cooled
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 2 tbsp brown butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the pumpkin bread.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, pumpkin spice, and a pinch of salt until evenly combined. Set aside.
- In another bowl, combine the cooled brown butter with both the light brown and granulated sugars, mixing until well incorporated. Then add the eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, pumpkin puree, salt, and whole milk. Mix until smooth and uniform.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients bowl. Stir gently until just combined to form the pumpkin bread batter.
- Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and pour the batter evenly into the pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Test doneness by inserting a toothpick or butter knife in the center; it should come out clean when ready.
- While the bread bakes, prepare the glaze by whisking together brown butter, maple syrup, powdered sugar, a pinch of salt, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
- Once the bread is fully baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan before removing it. After cooling, pour the glaze evenly over the top of the bread for a sweet finishing touch.
