Instructions
- Combine all streusel ingredients in a bowl, mixing well until resembles chunky, damp sand.* Cover and keep in fridge to chill.
- Preheat oven to 350F with rack on lower middle position. Grease a 8x8 baking dish with butter on bottom and up sides.
- In a large bowl, combine eggs, vanilla, sugar, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. Hand-whisk to thoroughly incorporate. Whisk in pumpkin until smooth.
- Add bread cubes to pumpkin mixture and gently toss to fully coat all bread cubes in bowl. It will seem thick and gloppy, which is ok.
- Transfer bread/pumpkin mixture evenly into buttered baking dish. Sprinkle chilled streusel evenly over the top.
- Bake uncovered 40-45 minutes, or until a knife inserted in center comes out mostly clean. The topping should be bubbling at the edges, and the center should feel set.
- Let stand at room temp 10 minutes. Serve warm with pure maple syrup.
