Equipment
- 8x4 inch loaf pans For baking the bread.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1.5 tsp salt
- 2 tsp ground allspice
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp ground cloves
- 15 oz pumpkin purée
- 0.75 cup vegetable oil
- 0.67 cup water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350ºF (175ºC) and line two 8x4 inch loaf pans with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, salt, allspice, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves. Make sure to mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin purée, vegetable oil, and water until smooth. This mixture adds moisture and flavor to the bread.
- Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just moistened. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay!
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans. Consider sprinkling some chopped nuts or chocolate chips on top for added texture and flavor.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on the bread to avoid overbaking.
- Allow the loaves to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. This step helps maintain moisture.
Notes
For added texture and flavor, consider mixing in chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter before baking.
