½ tsp salt
1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground ginger
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
¼ tsp ground cloves
1 cup pumpkin puree

Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
¼ cup packed light brown sugar
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Brown-sugar replacements vary in moisture, spread, and browning, so follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.

¼ cup whole milk
1 tsp vanilla extract

For the streusel

½ cup all-purpose flour
⅓ cup packed light brown sugar
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Brown-sugar replacements vary in moisture, spread, and browning, so follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
3 tbsp unsalted butter, cold and cut into small cubes

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with a strip of parchment paper that overhangs the two long sides, leaving handles for easy removal.
2
Make the streusel: In a small mixing bowl, combine the 1/2 cup flour, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp salt. Add the cold butter cubes and work them in with your fingertips, pressing and rubbing until the mixture forms coarse, pea-sized clumps with no dry flour remaining. Refrigerate while you make the batter.
