Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, brown sugar, pumpkin, oil, and vanilla. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking powder, aniseed, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture and stir until well blended. Pour the batter into a greased and floured 8x4-inch loaf pan.

Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, milk, anise extract, and butter flavoring (if using). Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread.
