This is no ordinary moist pumpkin bread. Add in the flavors of chocolate, toffee, cream cheese and maple and you have amazing pumpkin bread.

Pumpkin season is in full force and a few of our other favorite pumpkin recipes include these delicious Pumpkin Bars. These Pumpkin Cookies with Maple frosting are to die for as are these Pumpkin Pie Sugar Cookies.

By the looks of the ingredient list for this Pumpkin Bread recipe you may think I got a little carried away with five different flavors in little loaf of bread  – chocolate chips, toffee, cream cheese, pumpkin and maple.

But I can tell you one thing, it works!  The combination of all these flavors in a loaf of bread are amazing.  MoistPumpkin bread totally says Fall and pumpkin bread with all these flavors says WOW!!

How to make Moist Pumpkin Bread

  • Be sure your butter and cream cheese are room temperature so you don’t end up with a bunch of lumps.
  • Beat until nice and smooth and then add in your pumpkin.pouring pumpkin bread batter into pan
  • Next add in your pumpkin pie spice, flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, chocolate chips and toffee chips and then into the greased pan.

  • Bake at 350 degrees F. for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.  After it is baked allow it to cool for 10 minutes in the pan.

  •  Drizzle glaze over the top of the cooled loaf.  I love the flavor the maple syrup gives the glaze.

How to Store Pumpkin Bread

Store the bread in a zipper plastic bread for 3-4 days.  It can also be frozen.  I prefer to freeze it before drizzling it with the glaze and then glaze before ready to serve.

    My family loves your zucchini loaf recipe. I have made it countless times this summer and am going to again today with my last bit of zucchini. Then we will be ready for pumpkin season! Thanks for the great tips and videos; I watched you a ton during quarantine! In fact, you’ve become a name my whole family is now familiar with. If Leigh Anne makes it, they know it will be good!
    Much appreciation from BC!

    It is amazing how you keep coming up with such good recipes.
    I tried the apple pie ice cream. It was soooo good. Everyone loved it
    The only problem I had was the recipe was too much for the Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker.
    I wonder if you have a bigger one than I do.
    Having the cooked apples in it was a great flavor.
    Keep sharing all your wonderful recipes.
