Create a tender, flavorful loaf packed with warm autumn spices. This simple, one-bowl recipe delivers the best moist pumpkin bread perfect for cozy mornings or fall gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree (canned is fine)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a standard 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; a few streaks of flour are acceptable.
  5. If using, gently fold in the optional nuts or chocolate chips.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  7. Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the pumpkin bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes before carefully turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • For an extra moist loaf, use buttermilk instead of oil, reducing the amount to 1/2 cup and adding 1/4 cup of buttermilk.
  • If you prefer a less sweet loaf, reduce the granulated sugar by 1/4 cup.
  • This bread tastes even better the next day after the spices have fully developed.
