How to make Pumpkin Bread

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, eggs, and vegetable oil. Mix until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Stir in the pure pumpkin puree, and your kitchen will instantly be filled with the inviting aroma of pumpkin spice.

Step 4

Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt to the mixture. These spices are what give this pumpkin bread its irresistible fall flavor.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; you want a tender crumb in your bread.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The exact baking time may vary, so keep an eye on it as it bakes.

Step 8

While your delicious pumpkin bread is baking, it’s time to prepare the maple glaze. You’ll need:

• 1 cup of granulated sugar
• 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
• 1 tbsp of milk or any non-dairy alternative

Step 9

Once your pumpkin bread is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the loaf pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Once the bread has cooled, drizzle the luscious maple glaze over the top. The combination of the moist pumpkin bread and the sweet maple glaze is pure autumnal bliss.

Note

For an extra treat, consider adding some chocolate chips to the batter before baking. The rich chocolate will complement the pumpkin spice flavors beautifully.
