How To Make diamond spiced pumpkin bread with walnuts

  • 1
    To make the crumb topping: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice, and salt. Add butter and with your fingertips lightly rub butter and flour mixture together until it comes together. Set aside.
  • 2
    To make the bread: Preheat oven to 350º. Spread chopped walnuts on baking sheet or in a shallow pan. Bake, stirring once or twice, until lightly browned and fragrant, 5 to 10 minutes. Let cool. Leave oven set at 350. Coat a 9x13 pan with vegetable oil and set aside. In a medium bowl, combine the sugar, flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, and salt. Whisk gently to blend.

    In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, eggs and oil until well blended. Stir in the toasted chopped walnuts. Stir in flour mixture just until dry ingredients are moistened (do not overmix). Spread batter into prepared pan. Evenly sprinkle crumb topping over the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 60 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Serve lightly warm or at room temperature.
