The Best Pumpkin Bread

  4.7 – 13 reviews  • Pumpkin Bread Recipes

I constantly get compliments on this pumpkin bread, which is my go-to recipe. It is incredibly moist and quick to prepare. You’ll also get 3 loaves in the end! Ideal for hosting parties or freezing one for later use. Sifting the dry ingredients is important since it improves the texture.

Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 50 mins
Total Time: 1 hr 10 mins

Yield: 3 7×3-inch loaves

Ingredients

  1. 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
  2. 2 cups white sugar
  3. 1 cup vegetable oil
  4. ⅔ cup water
  5. 4 eggs
  6. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  7. 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  8. 2 teaspoons baking soda, sifted
  9. 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  10. 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  11. 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  12. ¼ teaspoon ground ginger

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour three 7×3-inch loaf pans.
  2. Mix together pumpkin puree, sugar, oil, water, eggs, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until well blended. Whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and ginger in a second bowl. Sift flour mixture on top of the pumpkin mixture and fold in with a spatula until just blended. Pour into the prepared pans.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until nicely browned on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes.

Great recipe. Generous recipe and good for giving as presents. Not showy but very tasty.

This recipe is awesome but at first I didn’t like it. I tasted it right out of the oven and the flavors were very harsh. But! When I tried it again the next day it was perrrfect! So my recommendation is to allow the loaves to cool completely and let the spices calm down before you serve it.

Easy. Had everything in my pantry.

This pumpkin bread is delicious!!! I only got 2 loaves, but I think my loaf pans are larger than 7×3. I added 1/2 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice and 1/4 teaspoon of cloves.

Did need a little more spice, very nice texture, definitely sift the dry ingredients and fold in.

This recipe makes 3 loaves! It needs double the amount of spice for flavor. I was not impressed.
