Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 0.25 cup milk
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk together until well combined.
Add the eggs to the butter and sugar mixture, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Mix in the pumpkin puree until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Alternate adding the dry ingredient mixture and the milk to the wet ingredients, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until no streaks of flour remain, being careful not to overmix.
If using, fold in the chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the pumpkin bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
