A delightful Pumpkin Spice Bread recipe that brings the warmth of fall to your kitchen with comforting flavors and a touch of tradition.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Add the eggs and whisk until smooth and well blended.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves). Slowly add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the nuts, if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake in the preheated oven for about 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into 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.
Notes
This bread can be made gluten-free by using a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend. For a nut-free version, omit the nuts or substitute with seeds.
