This was the second installment of the Secret Baker shipment I mentioned in an earlier post. This time, our theme was Fall… whatever we baked & sent had to be fall inspired!
I chose to make Pumpkin Streusel Bread. Since the recipe I used makes a ton of bread, I ended up with 2 loaves and 9 good sized muffins. I love how this bread/ muffin recipe turned out… so moist and tasty. The streusel topping is really the highlight (or so I think!). I will absolutely be making this again very soon!
