Pumpkin Bread with Maple Cream Icing
Pumpkin Bread with Maple Cream Icing might just be one of the best pumpkin treats I've ever eaten. It's moist, has all the fall spices, and has a drizzle of icing right on top to add some sweetness to the bread.

Pumpkin Bread
Prepare loaf pan by spraying with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the flour with brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
Add the milk, eggs, butter, and pumpkin puree and mix until combined.
Pour batter into a greased bread 9-inch by 5-inch loaf pan.
Bake for approximately 60 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean.
Set aside to cool.
Maple Glaze
Mix the confectioners sugar, maple syrup, and heavy cream. Add more cream if needed.
Pour the glaze over the cooled pumpkin loaf.
You can also line the loaf pan with parchment paper if you want to lift the loaf out with ease.
Some people love chocolate chips in their pumpkin bread. If you want chocolate chips, add one cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips to the batter and bake as usual.
