The Ultimate Fresh Pumpkin Bread Recipe

Ingredients

2 cups flour
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups fresh, shredded pumpkin

Steps

1.) Preheat your oven to 325 degrees.

2.) Sift the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together.

3.) In a separate bowl mix the sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla.

4.) Cut up your pumpkin and shred three cups.

Let’s be honest. I used to do this part prior to meeting my husband. However, now that I have him… I make him do it. Those small baking pumpkins can be tough! I’m not even ashamed to admit that!

NOTE: My absolute hands down, all-time favorite bowl is this Glass 8 Cup Pampered Chef Bowl Mike and I got as a wedding gift. Love it!!

5.) Then, combine both mixtures and fold in the pumpkin.

6.) Once it has all been mixed up pour it into a non-stick 9×5, 3″ loaf pan.

Note: If you don’t have a non-stick pan just coat it with butter and flour.

7.) Bake for one hour and 15 minutes. However, always insert a knife and check just to make sure!

8.) Let it cool for 15 mins and then turn it over onto a cooling rack (or plate if you don’t have one).
