 Pumpkin Bread with Maple Icing Recipe

Ingredients

For the Pumpkin Bread:

• 1 ¾ cups (220 g) all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
• ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
• ½ cup (100 g) brown sugar (light or dark)
• 2 large eggs, room temperature
• ½ cup (120 ml) vegetable oil (or melted butter)
• 1 ½ cups (340 g) pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
• ¼ cup (60 ml) milk (whole or 2%)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Maple Icing:

• 1 cup (120 g) powdered sugar, sifted
• 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon milk or heavy cream (more if needed for consistency)
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Oven & Pan

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2: Make the Pumpkin Bread Batter

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together: flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger. Set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and oil until smooth.
3. Add in the pumpkin puree, milk, and vanilla extract, and whisk until combined.
4. Gradually fold in the dry ingredients with a spatula until just combined (don’t overmix, to keep bread fluffy).

Step 3: Bake the Bread

1. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
2. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
3. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before icing.

Step 4: Make the Maple Icing

1. In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, maple syrup, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
2. If the icing is too thick, add a few drops of milk; if too thin, add more powdered sugar.

Step 5: Ice the Bread

1. Once the bread is completely cooled, drizzle the maple icing generously over the top.
2. Let the icing set for 20 minutes before slicing.

Serving Suggestions 

• Serve with a hot cup of coffee or spiced chai.
• Add toasted pecans or walnuts on top of the icing for crunch.
• Warm up a slice and spread a little butter for extra indulgence.

✨ Result: Moist, warmly spiced pumpkin bread topped with silky-sweet maple icing — a cozy treat that tastes like autumn in every bite.

Would you like me to also give you a cream cheese maple glaze version (a thicker frosting-style topping) instead of the thin drizzle icing?
