Every fall, I crave something that tastes indulgent but comes together surprisingly fast. This butterscotch pumpkin bread is exactly that recipe. The pumpkin puree gives you natural fiber and vitamins while keeping the bread moist, and honestly, it's become my go to because you can have it ready in under an hour from start to finish. Plus, most of these ingredients are probably already in your kitchen right now. The butterscotch chips melt into pockets of sweet caramel flavor, and that streusel topping adds the perfect crunch. It's comfort in loaf form.
