Pumpkin Bread
Fall is here and so are the pumpkin patches! Start off this fall by enjoying a slice of homemade pumpkin bread. Full of Autumn spice, smooth pumpkin and chewy goodness!
I love fall. I love the colorful leaves. The fresh, chilly air. And I love enjoying it all with a hot cup of tea and a slice of loaf bread.
Sometimes I use salted pumpkin seeds, which is fine, but then I won’t add the salt into the actual dough to prevent over using the ingredient and messing the bread up.
I really hope you enjoy this! So, try this out and don’t forget to tag me on Instagram or Facebook. I would love to see your creation!
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. ginger
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 1 tsp. nutmeg
- 1 tsp. allspice
- 1 tsp. ground cloves
- ¼ tsp. salt
- 2 sticks butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- ¼ cup buttermilk
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- ¼ cup unsalted pumpkin seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉. Butter or oil a 5x9 loaf pan.
- In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ground cloves, and salt. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Scrape down the bowl halfway through. It should become a wet dough consistency.
- Add in the eggs on at a time and mix until well combined. Then add in the vanilla.
- Slowly alternate between half of the flour and milk at a time into the bowl, ending with the milk.
- Stir in the pumpkin puree.
- Pour the batter into the loaf pan and sprinkle the pumpkin seeds on top.
- Bake for 45-1 hour or until the center is cooked through.
