Ingredients

for the glaze:

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Line an 8x4 bread pan with parchment paper and grease the sides with coconut oil or nonstick spray; set aside.
  • Next, melt the coconut oil and set it aside. Wait until it cools to room temperature before using it.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the pumpkin, eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla together.
  • To that same bowl, add the flour, both sugars, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spices and use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to stir everything together until the flour disappears.
  • Transfer the batter to your prepared bread pan, using the back of a spoon to smooth out the top. Bake the bread for 60-65 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Leave the bread in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a cooling rack. Wait for the bread to cool before adding the glaze.
  • For the glaze: whisk the syrup, powdered sugar and cinnamon together. Once the bread has cooled, drizzle the glaze over top. Slice the bread and enjoy!
