Pumpkin Oat Streusel Bread…*
…carve yourself a slice
Pumpkins aren’t just for Halloween—their distinct taste isdelicious and comforting year-round. Pumpkin also happens to be my sister’s favorite flavor and since she’s my best friend and my roommate, I decided to bake this delightful loaf for her us to enjoy for breakfast. The taste is similar to my pumpkin cheesecake muffins, but much more flavorful. This not-too-sweet loaf has a hearty character, yet a very tender crumb. Thick slices pair well with fresh fruit and a cup of coffee or tea for a tasty breakfast or a late-afternoon snack. So, go on, carve yourself a slice :)
