Pumpkin bread is a classic treat and perfect for autumn. Its deep, rich flavor comes from ingredients like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, which make it delicious with the natural sweetness of pumpkin. Some recipes include additional ingredients like nuts or chocolate to enhance the taste.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 cup vegetable oil (or melted butter)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- ¼ tsp ground cloves (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Set aside.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Combine wet and dry mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the bread soft and tender.
- Pour into the pan: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
- Bake: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached.
- Cool: Remove the pan from the oven and let the pumpkin bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve and enjoy: Slice and serve your delicious pumpkin bread either plain or with a spread of butter or cream cheese.
