No words for this bread… I have adapted the streusel idea from Kylie’s blog: immaeatthat. She made this blueberry muffin streusel bread that I SO wanted to make.. only I didn’t have any blueberries. But, I did have a can of organic pumpkin! So I made my own version of streusel bread! The streusel is made of oats, butter, brown sugar, whole wheat flour, pumpkin pie spice, and pumpkin seeds – perfection. The bread itself is not overly sweet, but the topping gives it just enough buttery, crunchy sweetness. I used Kodiak Cakes Power Cakes mix to give this bread more protein! One serving (1/2 cup) of Power Cakes mix has 14g of protein, which is why I love Kodiak Cakes so much!
for the bread:
RECIPE: (makes 2 small loaves or one large loaf)
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 & 1/2 cup Power Cakes Kodiak Cakes mix
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup melted butter
INSTRUCTIONS:
- preheat oven to 350 degrees
- in a large bowl, mix flour, Kodiak Cakes mix, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and baking soda
- in a separate bowl, mix pumpkin, egg, melted butter, almond milk, and vanilla
- mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in about 3 increments, mixing after each addition
- pour into greased loaf pans (about 3/4 full)
for the streusel:
RECIPE:
- 2 tablespoons old fashioned oats
- 2 tablespoons whole what flour
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds
INSTRUCTIONS:
- put everything in one bowl
- mix with your hands until crumbly
- top each loaf with the streusel, pressing down lightly so it bakes into the top of each loaf
- bake loaves for about 25-30 minutes until browned at the top and knife comes out clean
Looks absolutely delicious! Moist too! I love using pumpkin, especially along with all the spices!
Thank you!! It is very tasty 🙂
