Pumpkin Bread with Streusel and Cinnamon Swirl
This pumpkin bread with streusel topping is so good with the homemade pumpkin pie spice, a ribbon of sugar-cinnamon swirl in the center, and a crunchy pecan crumble on top. I started with my classic pumpkin bread, which is buttery and tender, but what sets this bread apart if the spiced and sweet in every bite including the pop of ginger in the pecan streusel.
