Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¾ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- ⅛ tsp ground nutmeg
- ⅛ tsp allspice
- 1 large egg
- ¾ cup pumpkin puree
- ¼ cup oil I used olive oil
- 1-2 tsp orange zest
- 1 TBSP orange juice from the same orange you zested
- ⅓ or 1/2 cup dried cranberries
FOR THE ICING:
- 1-2 cups powdered sugar
- 1-2 tsp milk plus extra as needed
- 2 TBSP dried cranberries for topping
- optional extras for flavored icing: vanilla extract or orange zest
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Rub/spritz a 8x4 inch loaf pan with oil and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and allspice in a bowl and whisk to incorporate.
- In a large bowl, combine wet ingredients: egg, pumpkin puree, oil, orange zest, and orange juice.
- Slowly sprinkle your flour mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring with a fork until just moistened. The batter will be sticky.
- Gently fold in cranberries and transfer batter to your greased loaf pan.
- Bake on the center rack in the center of the oven for 45-50 minutes, using a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf to test doneness.
- Transfer bread to a cooling rack and whisk together your icing while the loaf cools.
- For the icing, combine powdered sugar with a teeny bit of milk and whisk until icing thickens into a thick glaze. Adjust amounts as needed to achieve your ideal thickness. Extra powdered sugar with thicken while milk/vanilla will thin the icing. Taste as you go. If desired, you can add a tiny drop of vanilla to flavor or orange zest for an orange glaze. It's great every which way!
- Pour icing over bread and slice with a sharpened knife.
- Commence faceplant!
Notes
- Alternatively you can use fresh lemon zest and juice for the bread. Add in the zest of one lemon along with 1 TBSP of fresh squeezed lemon juice [from the very same lemon you zested - woot!] and you'll be good to go. This comes in handy when you toddler eats the last orange and all you have are lemons. The lemon flavor is super pronounced when you use this sub so if you love lemon go for it! If you want less of a bite add a little lest zest and you'll be good to go!
