Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup powdered sugar for glaze
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup for glaze
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk for glaze

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and buttermilk until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the bread cools, prepare the maple glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, maple syrup, and enough milk to reach your desired consistency.
  9. Once the bread is cool, drizzle the maple glaze over the top.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, consider adding chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter.
