  • 3 and 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter very cold

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Prepare a 9x5 inch loaf pan by lining it with parchment paper and generously spraying it with non-stick baking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, baking soda, salt, and spices. Whisk these ingredients together thoroughly.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, eggs, egg yolk, oil, orange juice, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth.
  • Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a rubber spatula.
  • Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the first layer.
  • Pour the remaining batter on top and smooth it out.
  • Prepare the crumb topping by mixing brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt together.
  • Quickly work in the cold butter until the mixture resembles tiny peas.
  • Sprinkle this crumb topping over the batter in the loaf pan.
  • Place the loaf pan in your preheated oven and bake for one hour.
  • Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 30 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack.
  • Store the cooled bread in a sealed container.
