WALNUT COATED SPICY PUMPKIN BREAD
An old Cooking Light recipe. This combination of spices is wonderful. I don't recommend substituting pumpkin pie spice for the individual spices - it's not the same. Note to World Tour participants - I believe the ingredients are typical for the Western U.S. where walnuts are grown.

PUMPKIN WALNUT BREAD WITH STREUSEL
Yield 1 loaf
Number Of Ingredients 22
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 F with the rack positioned in the bottom third of the oven. Butter a 9" x 5" loaf pan. To make the streusel: Stir together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small mixing bowl. Using a pastry blender or 2 forks, cut in the butter until it creates pea-sized crumbs. Set aside. To make the bread:In a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, pumpkin, milk, eggs and vanilla until combined. In another mixing bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, ginger, nutmeg and baking powder. Add the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture and mix with a rubber spatula just until combined. Do not overmix. Spoon half the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Spread the streusel over the batter and cover with the remaining batter. Place the walnut halves over the surface of the bread. Bake until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 65 to 70 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire cooling rack and let cool for 15 minutes. Using a thin knife or spatula, release the bread from the pan and let cool to room temperature.
Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin purée. Fresh pumpkin purée has a richer flavor and texture than canned pumpkin puree. To make your own pumpkin purée, simply roast a pumpkin until tender, then scoop out the flesh and purée it in a food processor or blender.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a loaf pan that is lined with parchment paper. This will make it easy to remove the bread from the pan after it is baked.
- Bake the bread for the full amount of time. Underbaked bread will be dense and gummy. A toothpick inserted into the center of the bread should come out clean when the bread is done.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing it. This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.
Conclusion:
Pumpkin walnut bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great gift for friends and family. With its moist texture, sweet flavor, and crunchy walnuts, pumpkin walnut bread is sure to please everyone.
