This easy Cookie Butter Pumpkin quick bread recipe is perfect for enjoying a fall afternoon or served at your Halloween or Thanksgiving event! Cookie Butter chunks are swirled inside moist Pumpkin Bread drizzled with a Cookie Butter Glaze.

I have this obsession with cookie butter all year round, and then when it's "fall" I become obsessed with pumpkin. I think that happens with a lot of people though.
I knew I wanted to swirl chunks of Cookie Butter into Pumpkin Bread but the Cookie Butter glaze was spur of the moment. Any glaze just makes any bread 10X better, well in my book it does.
You will love how absolutely moist and chock-full of Cookie Butter this pumpkin bread is. I took this into work and everyone gobbled it up, then my sister proceeded to tell me how rude it was I took it to work and didn't leave the bread at home for her to devour. I am so inconsiderate.
Let's get to the recipe.

What are the ingredients for Cookie Butter Pumpkin Bread?

This bread is perfect on its own but I can't leave well enough alone so I added a cookie butter glaze. For the glaze you'll need:
- Cookie Butter/ Biscoff Spread
- Powdered Sugar
- Heavy Cream, Milk or Creamer
How do you make Pumpkin Cookie Butter Bread?
First, things first, you need a properly heated oven, turn it to 350F/180C and grease a 9X5 loaf pan.
In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
In another large bowl mix together the butter and sugar.
Then add the eggs and vanilla, whisk until fully combined, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Whisk in the pumpkin puree and Greek yogurt. Again scrape down the bowl to ensure they are fully combined.
Gently stir in the dry ingredients.
Don't over mix the flour mixture, mix just until no flour streaks remain.
Pour half of the batter into the pan and scoop half of the Cookie Butter in 1 teaspoon size chunks of cookie butter on top of the batter and swirl with a knife, pour remaining quick bread batter and remaining cookie butter and swirl.
Bake for the cookie butter pumpkin bread for 45-55 minutes, if you gently press the top center of the bread it should bounce back, or if you insert a toothpick it should come out with no wet batter. Let the quick bread cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes before inverting out of the loaf pan to cool completely.
How do you make a cookie butter glaze?
In a small bowl whisk together cookie butter, powdered sugar, and cream.
Drizzle on top of the cooled pumpkin bread, I use an offset spatula to spread it evenly. Store leftovers in an air-tight container for up to 4 days.
This pumpkin bread is a winner in everyone's book.

Everybody around me knows that I am a real fan of pumpkin and all dishes that contain pumpkin! I also like this wonderful cookie butter glaze. I am that sort of person who eats the glaze from every cookie or muffin, or cake when nobody is watching 😀 Thank you for the recipe! I am sure the sweet bread will turn out to be a real joy for gourmets! How long does it stay fresh and how should I store it? Your blog is always full of appetizing photos and creative ideas. Keep it up, good luck)))
