Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cloves
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 cup Pumpkin puree
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with unsalted butter and lightly dust it with flour or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Set aside.
In another large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and pumpkin puree until smooth.
Beat the eggs into the wet mixture one at a time, ensuring that each egg is fully incorporated. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently with a spatula or wooden spoon. Add the milk and continue to mix until the batter is smooth and well combined. If using chopped nuts, fold them into the batter at this stage.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with your spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your Purfect Pumpkin Bread with a cup of coffee, tea, or on its own!
