Libby's Pumpkin Bread with Butterscotch Glaze

Jessie Thompson
We have entered the time of year when all my favorite flavors come into play! Fall is a time for coziness and warmth, and those feelings extend to the food we eat, especially during the holiday season. Pumpkin flavor, sweet potato, cinnamon, and more are just begging for a place at your table and in your tummy! That's where my Libby's Pumpkin Bread with Butterscotch Glaze comes in. It is a moist, flavorful, and perfectly spiced treat to make for the upcoming holidays. (And since we are using pumpkins, Halloween falls in there, too!)

Pumpkin Bread:

  • Third, add the dry ingredients—vanilla pudding, baking soda, baking powder, flour, and salt—to the bowl and mix just until combined.
  • Next, pour batter into the loaf pan and spread evenly.
  • Then, bake the Pumpkin Bread for 1 hour or until it's done in the middle.
  • When the Pumpkin Bread is finished baking, let it cool on the counter for at least an hour while you make the glaze.

Butterscotch Glaze:

  • ​First, in a medium saucepan, melt the stick of butter.
  • Second, once the butter is melted, add the milk and butterscotch chips and whisk to combine.
  • ​Third, keep stirring the butterscotch chips until they are completely melted.
  • Then, add the pumpkin spice and powdered sugar to the saucepan, whisking continuously.
  • Cook the glaze over medium heat until it thickens to the consistency you want.
  • Once the glaze reaches your desired thickness, remove it from the heat and let it cool for about 30 minutes.
  • After the glaze has cooled, pour it on top of the bread or serve it over individual slices and ENJOY!
