We were in New York over the weekend and while walking through Central Park. I grabbed a cup of double espresso and a pumpkin brioche with it! That brioche has started everything…I loved it, was deliciously moist but was missing something….cinnamon 🙂

Spiced cinnamon and pumpkin is a perfect fall match. Got back home and started looking for the perfect pumpkin and cinnamon recipe. This Braided Pumpkin and Cinnamon Brioche Bread is hands down one of the best breads ever.

Just delicious! Moist, full of pumpkin flavor and spiced cinnamon between the doughy layers. You will not be able to stop from eating it! Just as I writing this I am having my second slice this morning 🙂

The dough is really easy to work with and you have to let it sit just for a hour and a half. It doesn’t require a lot of ingredients, just pumpkin puree (I used The Organic Pumpkin Puree), butter, flour, sugar, dry yeast and of course cinnamon and nutmeg.
