Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking soda (sifted to eliminate lumps)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 cup extra light olive oil (or vegetable or corn oil)
  • 15 oz pumpkin puree (fresh or canned)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper to ensure easy removal.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ground cloves, ground nutmeg, and sea salt. Add the sugar and whisk gently to combine all the dry ingredients evenly.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. Add the pumpkin puree and oil, and mix until thoroughly incorporated.
  4. Combine wet and dry mixes: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently fold the batter just until all the flour is moistened; the batter will be thick. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
  5. Pour into pan and bake: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 60 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and serve: Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute pumpkin puree with homemade puree from fresh pumpkin for a fresher taste.
  • For extra moistness and flavor, consider adding 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans into the batter.
  • Use room temperature eggs to help the batter mix more evenly.
  • This pumpkin bread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to a week.
  • Freeze leftover slices wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and foil for up to 3 months.
  • If you prefer a less sweet bread, reduce sugar by 1/4 cup.
