Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare an 8x4" loaf pan by spraying it with non-stick spray and lining the bottom and two long sides with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices; set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat together the brown sugar, olive oil, vanilla extract, eggs, pumpkin purée, and almond milk until combined. Add the dry ingredients and beat until combined and smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Run a butter knife or chopstick down the long middle of the batter to promote cracking down the center of the loaf.
Baking
- Bake at 350°F for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out with a couple of crumbs. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
- Run a butter knife along the edges of the loaf that touch the pan, lift the parchment paper and the loaf out of the pan, and transfer to a cooling rack. Peel off the paper and allow the loaf to cool completely.
Icing
- To make the icing, combine the brown sugar, butter, and almond milk in a small saucepan. Place over medium-high heat and whisk until it comes to a full boil, then remove from heat.
- Add the sifted powdered sugar to the saucepan and whisk until combined. Let the mixture cool and thicken for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Prepare to glaze the loaf by placing a baking sheet or paper towels under the cooling rack. Pour the glaze onto the loaf, starting at one end and repeating for two layers.
- Allow the icing to set before slicing.

Notes
Feel free to substitute brown sugar with maple or coconut sugar for a different sweetness. Add nuts or chocolate chips for texture.
