First I want to thank you all for your Tooth Fairy help. I think I am shooting for $2 a tooth. Fair enough I think.
Second, a HUGE thank you to Jennifer at The Speedy Gourmet. She wanted to see if I had a “button on my blog” so she could put it up on her blog. When I told her I had no clue how to get one of those fancy buttons, she did it for me!!! How nice is that!?? Since my logo is a bit long, it got squeezed in translation. However a button is a button and it is awesome that Jennifer took the time to do it for me!
So if it were dying to have one of my buttons for your blog, well here ya have it! But don’t go steeling my logo for your personal use..it is currently being Trademarked!! 🙂 My Lawyer will hunt you down! LOL LOL LOL
Now on to the yum.
Don’t you just love when you are craving something, then throw it together and it works wonderfully?
I made this pumpkin bread a few months ago (you have no clue how behind I am on posting).
I must say, it was perfect. Well anything with a crumb topping is perfect if you ask me.
This bread is super duper moist, sweet but not too sweet and ultra comforting. I took my banana bread recipe and mixed it up a bit. Sure you could roast your own pumpkin and puree it. But when I made this bread, it was not pumpkin season and there were no pumpkins to be had.
Makes 2 loafs
3 eggs
Add the vanilla
Add the eggs, one at a time.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour,salt,baking powder,pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet, alternating with the buttermilk, starting and ending with the flour.
Fold in the pumpkin and toasted walnuts.
Equally pour into the pans and top with crumb mixture (recipe below).
Bake for 50-60 minutes, until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
CRUMB TOPPING
1/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup ap flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup cold butter, cubed
1/2 cup oatmeal (1 package of instant oatmeal)
1/2 cup walnuts
In a medium bowl, combine 1st five ingredients with a pastry blender or 2 forks, so it resembles, well “crumbles”.
Mix in oatmeal and walnuts
This looks fabulous! I just made pumpkin bars with cinnamon cream cheese frosting…yum!!!
Love this one! The topping sold me!
This looks so yummy! For the can of pure pumpkin, is it the small can or the big one? (sorry I can't remember how many oz each of them are)
I can't wait to make this bread!
Oh Yummm – I absolutely love pumpkin goodies and these I will just have to try. Thank you so much for this great recipe!
So glad you finally have a button I can add to my blog. I love all your recipes and will be making this pumpkin bread as soon as my husband comes home from the Middle East. Thanks for sharing, he'll love it!
WOW! This is yummy. Thanks for sharing 🙂
I haven't tried pumpkin bread. I bet its delicious..
Fall is in the air here and I've been craving pumpkin lately. This looks delicious! 🙂
Yep, I could just eat a bowl full of that crumb topping! YUMMMMM! The bread does look super moist and now I'm really getting into the fall baking mood! Sigh. Bye bye summer.

Is it pumpkin season already? I know it's PB&J season. Man this looks to die for.
And I'm sending over the 'spell-check fairy' for you.
Haaaaaayy!
Love this recipe! I love pumpkin, but have never made pumpkin bread. Trying this one soon – thanks!
Yum, I gotta try this.

The topping sounds heavenly! You would have to remove the loaf from my hands. It would get ugly.
Pumpkin bread is the best but your crumb topping makes it even better! I sure wish I had a slice or two for breakfast.
is it time to break out the pumpkin recipes already? nooooo! well, if it has to be done, this is a fine way to get the party started. 🙂
TIGHTWAD!! When the tooth comes out he's spending the night at my house!!
The neighbor…
This is why I love this time of year.
Bring on the fall recipes!!!! Yum, fantastic crumb topping. Trademarked? Too cool! 🙂
I love the thick crumb topping you piled on top – it looks fabulous! I'm so craving pumpkin bread now!
I love everything involving pumpkin. But the crumb topping, that's a new idea and I totally dig it!
I love pumpkin bread… I want some of this right now… or perhaps for breakfast tomorrow. Maybe both?
Looks like a delicious Fall recipe … bookmarking…
I think you're anticipation for autumn is about as strong as mine.
And the pumpkin bread with the crumbly topping is perfect for the Fall season, which, if you get in your car and turn the corner, is right there.
My husband loves everything pumpkin and this looks AWESOME!!! Great recipe…Thanks for sharing

Hi Leslie,
Just popped in while checking links for Milton Hershey's Birthday tomorrow. I'm going to use the blog post where I borrowed your adorable Marshmallow Snowmen.
How sweet of your pal to make you a button. I'm going to try my hand at it someday:) I for one am delighted to "grab" it. I really should drop by more often, your Pumpkin Bread & Topping speaks to the welcoming of autumn.
Thank you so much for sharing…
Mmmm… yes please. Great recipe, and great blog too! Just discovered you and will definitely be coming back.
I have a great pumpkin bread recipe. I have never tried it with a crumb topping though. Perfect for my fall goodie baskets.
Libby's pumpkin is £5 a can (about $8!) over here, so I think I will be roasting my own!
Looks very delicious, I love the crumb topping! That reminds me I want to do a button too, on my to do list. Congrats on yours, very cute!

Loving the addition of the crumb topping. Everything is better with crumbs on top!

I know you posted this forever ago, but I just ran acrossed it. It looks delicious. Do you know if you can make muffins out of this recipe?
***STACY***
Thank you for your question.
I have not made them into cupcakes yet. But I am sure they would be just delicious. Just adjust the baking time..I would say about 25-30 minutes..Just test with a toothpick.
I was doing a google search for pumpkin bread and your recipe looked like the winner. I tried it last weekend and it was delicious! I posted a link to it on my blog a few days ago: http://forsuchatimeasnow.blogspot.com/2010/09/pumpkin-bread-with-crumb-topping.html
Absolutely a must do!! Look divinely delicious!! Thanks for sharing the recipe, hopefully my bread will come out as delicious as yours looks.
looks so good, I can almost smell the yumminess….and I love the crumb topping!
Love it! It is time to get to baking with pumpkin, one of my favorite things about fall.
This is right up my alley. Wish I had time to bake one today!
A slice of this would easily satisfy my fall-flavor cravings. Okay, let’s make it two slices.
Oh my does this ever look yummy! I love the bright orange color of the bread and that crumb topping? nom nom nom!
Love the pumpkin bread & the new button! Have you joined us at Project Lunch Box yet? This post would be a great link up http://su.pr/221xT1
