Instructions
- Preheat the oven and prepare the pan: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk granulated sugar, brown sugar, oil, and eggs until smooth. Stir in pumpkin puree, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Make streusel topping: In a small bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in the cold butter until crumbly.
- Top the batter: Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the batter.
- Bake: Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and serve: Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
- For added texture, mix 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts into the streusel topping.
- This bread tastes even better the next day as the spices deepen in flavor.
