Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) with oven rack in center position. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

Step 2

Beat ½ cup softened butter and white sugar together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; beat in pumpkin purée, eggs, ¼ cup brown sugar, and vanilla extract until incorporated. Set aside.

Step 3

Sift 1 ½ cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger together into a separate large bowl; beat ½ into pumpkin mixture on low speed until incorporated. Add remaining ½ flour mixture alternating with milk, mixing until batter is smooth; do not overmix. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.

Step 4

Combine walnuts, ½ cup cold butter, ¼ cup brown sugar, oats, and ¼ cup flour in a medium bowl with a fork to form large crumbles; sprinkle over batter in the pan.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 65 minutes. Cool completely before serving.
