Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ¾ cups (220g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 cup (240g) pumpkin puree
- ½ cup (120ml) vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
- ½ cup (100g) brown sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray, then line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ¾ cups (220g) of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, ½ teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon of nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon of ground cloves. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup (240g) of pumpkin puree, ½ cup (120ml) of vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, ½ cup (100g) of granulated sugar, and ½ cup (100g) of brown sugar until smooth.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Be gentle to avoid overmixing. The batter should be thick and smooth.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with the spatula.
- Place the pan in the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack.
- Once cooled, slice the bread and enjoy with a pat of butter or a drizzle of maple syrup!
