Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix together pumpkin puree, eggs, and vegetable oil until smooth.
  4. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold gently until just combined.
  5. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, melted butter, and optional nuts for the crumb topping.
  6. Pour the pumpkin batter into the loaf pan and sprinkle the crumb topping over it.
  7. Bake for approximately 60 minutes, checking for doneness at the 50-minute mark with a toothpick.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
