For the streusel

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350℉. Grease an 8 or 9-inch light metal loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper and grease. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, use a handheld electric mixer to cream the softened butter and brown sugar until smooth, about 1 minute.
  3. Add the pumpkin and eggs, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Add the spices, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and flour, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
  5. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and set aside.
Making the Streusel
  1. In a medium bowl, stir together melted butter, flour, brown sugar, and pumpkin pie spice until it resembles wet sand.
  2. Drop heaping handfuls of the streusel over the top of the bread.
Baking
  1. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  2. Let it cool completely on a wire rack.
Preparing the Glaze
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar, maple extract, maple syrup, and milk until smooth.
  2. Drizzle the glaze over the bread and let it set before slicing.
Serving
  1. Slice the Pumpkin Streusel Bread and serve it warm or at room temperature.
