How to Make Praline Pumpkin Date Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease the bottoms of two 9x5x3 inch or 8.5x4.5x2.5 inch loaf pans.
  3. Prepare the praline topping: In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup chopped pecans, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Mix until crumbly and set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 large eggs, and 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree.
  5. Add 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix until just combined.
  6. Stir in 1 cup chopped dates.
  7. Pour batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans.
  8. Sprinkle evenly with the praline topping.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes.
  11. Run a knife or spatula around the edges of the loaves to loosen.
  12. Remove loaves from pans and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  13. Once completely cool, wrap tightly and store at room temperature for up to 4 days or refrigerate for up to 10 days.
