Kitchen Utensils for this Recipe
To make this easy banana pumpkin bread with streusel topping, you will need a large mixing bowl, a loaf pan, a whisk, measuring cups and spoons, and a fork.
Banana Pumpkin Bread Streusel Topping
This bread is literally not complete without the streusel topping!
Make sure to completely cover the batter in streusel so you can hardly see anything underneath. Once baked, it is time for a maple glaze on top! You do not NEED this part, but I find it rather aesthetic and tasty. Plus, it is super easy to make! All you need are two ingredients: powdered sugar & maple syrup!
How Do You Know When the Banana Pumpkin Bread is Done?
When there is about 10 minutes left, I would test the center with a toothpick! If it comes out wet, keep baking it. You will know when it is done when the center has risen and the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
The streusel should also be a nice golden color! The edges will be a bit darker than the center!
How to Store this Easy Banana Pumpkin Bread?
IF you have not cut into your bread, you can wrap it in aluminum foil or, if it has been cut, store it in an airtight container. You can also freeze your bread if you want! I would wrap individual pieces in cling wrap and then store it in an airtight container.
