Pumpkin Bread Recipe

Whether you’re enjoying a cozy morning at home or looking for a treat to share with friends, this pumpkin bread recipe is the ideal choice. It’s moist, flavorful, and loaded with all the right spices to make your taste buds dance.

Ingredients

1 cup canned pumpkin puree
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix well until all the ingredients are blended together.
Add the eggs to the mixture and beat until well incorporated. Make sure there are no lumps.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
Pour in the vanilla extract and give it a final mix.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 60-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, let the pumpkin bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy your freshly baked pumpkin bread as is, or spread a little butter on top for an extra indulgent treat. This recipe not only makes for a delicious snack but also serves as a wonderful gift during the fall season. Happy baking!
