How To Make pumpkin chai bread
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 350ºF/177ºC. Generously grease a large loaf pan with butter and dust with flour; set aside.
-
Step 2In a mixing bowl, add flour, baking soda, chai masala powder, pumpkin pie spice and baking powder. Whisk to blend the ingredients and set aside.
-
Step 3In the bowl of a stand mixer, add melted butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar. With the paddle attachment on, process on medium speed until just combined. Add an egg at a time and mix well between each addition.
-
Step 4Add pumpkin purée and process until well blended. Add the dry ingredients, reduce the speed to low, and mix until just combined, stopping to clean the sides of the bowl.
-
Step 5Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and level it out. Tap the pan to dislodge any trapped air, transfer to the preheated oven and bake for 1:10 hours or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean with just a few crumbs.
-
Step 6Remove from the heat and allow it to cool for 10 minutes in the pan before unmolding and transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Step 7Meanwhile make the icing. In a medium bowl, add cream cheese and half of the icing sugar. Using a spatula, combine the two ingredients together before adding more sugar to it, blend it again with the cheese and then add the remainder of it. Add pure vanilla extract and continue mixing the ingredients until nice and smooth.
-
Step 8Transfer it to the fridge to firm up while the bread is getting to room temperature.
-
Step 9Later on, evenly spread on the icing over the loaf and top with pumpkin seeds
