Hi Bold Bakers! My Best Ever Pumpkin Bread is packed full of pumpkin flavor and aromatic spices. And did I mention the fabulous brown butter and maple glaze? The combination of sweet maple syrup with nutty butter is a total winner and the best part is how well it compliments the flavor of the pumpkin. So let’s get baking!

I made this tonight! I made a few substitutions to create a healthier bread: Stevia for the sugar, half a tablespoon of butter and half a cup of plain nonfat Greek yogurt instead of the oil, and 4 tablespoons of applesauce for one egg (so applesauce substitution + 1 egg). Then, instead of melting the butter for the glaze, I used nonfat Greek yogurt and 2 teaspoons of maple syrup. Everything else was the same. This is SO delicious and INCREDIBLY moist! This is my 3rd time baking bread (first 2 were Gemma's Irish bread), and Gemma's recipes are a true success. I definitely don't regret starting my fall baking with this bread, thank you!

I just love your videos Gemma. I am 13 and love to bake. Since I have seen your bread recipes, I never bought bread again. This bread looks very beautiful. I will surely give it a try. Thanks for the recipes and keep baking.

This has become a tradition in my home now, I made it every year and bake it as a gift for my friends and they have loved it, the only thing I haven mastered is the frosting it doesn't harden but is still delicious!

Love this bread ? Wonder if I can substitute anything to make it a bit healthier but good taste ? Any idea

This recipe came out beautifully! I even made a mistake and left out the milk and it was still absolutely beautiful! Perfect crumb, prefect moistness and flavor, like I could even believe I made something so nice and it wasn’t from the bakery. Thank u Gemma!! 💗💗💗

I absolutely love this recipe! I used it for the first time last year and made two loaves to go into my goodie bags. They were such a huge hit that this year I will be making 4 loaves! Thanks so much!

Wonderful and delicious Pumpkin Bread. Looks really moist and soft and the glaze is so creamy.
Bravissima Gemma😚😚😚

Gemma, I just want to thank you for a wonderful recipe. I was cleaning out my pantry and came across a can of pumpkin I had bought last year and never used- and I thought- why not find a pumpkin bread recipe and use it? It turned out fantastic. I think the milk makes a huge difference, to be honest.

I love that you put the egg alternative suggestion in the video!

I absolutely love this recipe best pumpkin bread and the maple glaze unbelievable

[cairneoleander]

Gemma, I've adored your channel for some time now, but last night I tried this recipe. I had recently toasted pumpkin seeds/pepitas in butter and cinnamon sugar which I added to the top of the glaze while still wet. It came out GORGEOUS and the added crunch was AMAZING. This is my go-to pumpkin bread now. Can't wait to bring this to holiday gatherings! Just TRY and call this pumpkin basic!

[michele-kt]

This was sooo easy and sooo delicious! Thank you for another great recipe! ❤

[Eidann]

Everyone in our family loved this pumpkin bread. Thank you; what a wonderful recipe. The only changes I made with second one: 1. I added about 1/3 cup of dried cranberries in bread. 2. I used softened (not melted) butter for icing, and waited for bread to completely cool before putting icing on.

Just made 30 loaves of banana bread and zucchini bread. Time for pumpkin now! Thanks Gemma!

Hello Gemma, I made the pumpkin bread last night! This is the best I have ever made. Out with old recipes! Super moist, light pumpkin taste, (I added walnuts) and the glaze? Amazing! Thank you so much!

[catracampolieto]

I just made your pumpkin bread today. Oh my goodness, moist and delicious. I used pumpkin puree from Long Island Cheese pumpkins that I grew organically. I knew I had to try your recipe. So glad I did.❤ Glad I made two loaves.
