Cooking Steps

Prep loaf pan and make crumb topping
1

Before starting, remove 4 tbsp butter from the fridge and set aside in a warm place until softened.Preheat the oven to 350ºF.Gather all required baking tools. Grease a 9x5-inch metal baking loaf pan with 1 tsp softened butter. Line the base and sides of the loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang off the sides. (TIP: The overhang will make it easy for you to remove the pumpkin loaf from the pan later.)Whisk together 1/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, pepitas, 1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice mix and 1/8 tsp salt in a medium bowl. Add 2 tbsp softened butter. Using your fingertips, mix dry ingredients with butter until pea-sized clumps form. Set aside. (NOTE: This is your pepita crumble.)

Start pumpkin loaf batter

Add 2 cups flour, baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp salt and remaining pumpkin pie spice mix to a large bowl, then whisk to combine. Using a spatula or an electric hand mixer, beat remaining softened butter, 1/4 cup oil and remaining brown sugar together in another large bowl until lightened and combined, 1 min. Add egg and 1 cup pumpkin pie filling to wet mixture, then beat until incorporated. (NOTE: Transfer any leftover pumpkin pie filling to a ziplock bag or container and freeze for a future creation!)

Finish pumpkin loaf batter
