Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Pumpkin puree
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup Water
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Chopped walnuts or pecans
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, water, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent a dense texture.
Fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Carefully transfer the bread onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your Pumpkin Nut Bread warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
