The Best Pumpkin Bread

Sharing is caring!

This is my go-to pumpkin bread and I always get rave reviews. It’s quick and easy to make and wonderfully moist. Plus you’ll end up with 3 loaves! Perfect for entertaining or to freeze one for later use. Don’t skip the sifting of the dry ingredients–it really adds to the texture.

Ingredients:

  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • ⅔ cup water
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda, sifted
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour three 7×3-inch loaf pans.

Mix together pumpkin puree, sugar, oil, water, eggs, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until well blended. Whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and ginger in a second bowl. Sift flour mixture on top of the pumpkin mixture and fold in with a spatula until just blended. Pour into the prepared pans.

Bake in the preheated oven until nicely browned on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes.
