Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 8x4 inch loaf pans. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, vegetable oil, water, and vanilla extract until well combined. (5 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

In a separate, large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, and ginger. (3 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Slowly mix in the pumpkin puree until the batter is smooth and evenly colored. (2 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans. (2 minutes)

07

Step
45 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. (35-55 minutes)

08

Step
10 mins

Let the bread cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding 1 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter.
Ensure your baking powder and baking soda are fresh for the best rise.
To prevent the top of the bread from getting too dark, tent it with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
Store the cooled bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
This recipe can also be used to make pumpkin muffins. Simply adjust the baking time accordingly.
For an even more intense spice flavor, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the dry ingredients.
