with a Maple Cream Cheese Drizzle

Sweet Harvest Pumpkin Ale Bread ~ Sumptuous Spoonfuls #pumpkin #bread #recipe


Spiked Recipe ChallengeThis is one of the things I had in mind when I made my Maple Amaretto Pumpkin Butter. I thought that using pumpkin butter would give the bread a more intense pumpkin taste. And I had signed up for the Spiked! Recipe challenge, which features fall beers. I thought one of those pumpkin ales would be just perfect in pumpkin bread. I chose the Samuel Adams Harvest Pumpkin Ale for this bread.

I made one loaf with the drizzle and one with chocolate chips and I’m having a hard time deciding which I like the best. Everyone who has tasted it keeps telling me how good it is. Yep, I’m definitely going to be making this one again.

  • Yield: 2 loaves 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups pumpkin butter recipe here
  • 1 cup plus 2 Tablespoons pumpkin ale
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 Tablespoon vanilla
  • 1/3 cup oil
  • 1/3 cup plain nonfat yogurt
  • 1/4 cup real maple syrup
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 cup flaxmeal
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

For the glaze:

  • 1 oz. light cream cheese
  • 1 oz. Greek yogurt
  • 1 Tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • a bit of milk, to thin

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spray two bread pans with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin butter, ale, eggs, vanilla, oil and yogurt. Stir in the sugar and the maple syrup.
  3. Add the dry ingredients and stir to mix well. Divide the batter evenly amongst the two bread pans.
  4. Bake at 350 F for 1 hour 10 minutes or until a wooden pick or knife inserted all the way down the center of the loaf comes out clean.
  5. While the loaves cool, prepare the drizzle. Warm the cream cheese slightly, then in a small bowl, stir together the drizzle ingredients until smooth. Wait till the loaves cool down, then, using a spoon, drizzle the glaze over the cooled pumpkin loaves.
  6. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

These loaves freeze well (without the drizzle).

Hi!
I’m hopping around checking out all the competition and I’m loving your recipe. This looks incredible, and I never would have thought to add maple syrup to the cram cheese glaze! I pinned it for later.
Good luck!
