💭 Tips
Here are a few tips that you can use to make sure this pumpkin bread with cinnamon glaze turns out perfectly for you.
- Once you combine the dry and wet ingredients be careful to not overmix your batter. Overmixing will give you tough bread.
- We like to grease and flour our baking pan so that this bread is removed easily from the pan. However, you can also spray it with baking spray. Or, spray with nonstick cooking spray and then add a layer of flour.
- Make sure that you allow the bread to cool completely before you add the glaze to the top of the bread otherwise, it will all melt off.
⁉️ FAQ
Do you have questions about this recipe? Here are the answers to the most commonly asked questions.
Pumpkin pie filling has spices and sugar added to it, so your bread will be overly sweet and seasoned.
If you put too much protein in the bread, your bread will be too moist.
We think that homemade does taste better, however, canned will work as well.
