Ingredients
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup canned pumpkin, about 1/2 can
- 1/3 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ginger
- 1/4 tsp cardamom
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F and butter a 9 inch loaf pan. Line the pan with parchment paper if you'd like for easier removal.
- Whisk together the oil, sugar, eggs, pumpkin, buttermilk and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, ginger, and cardamom to the same bowl and mix together until everything is evenly incorporated.
- Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and bake for about 60-70 minutes, until risen and there is no more wet batter in the middle.

Notes
- This pumpkin bread freezes especially well. Let it cool completely, then wrap tightly in plastic wrap. I like to wrap it again in foil, or put it into a heavy duty freezer bag, pushing out any excess air before I zip it up. It will keep well for up to 3 months.
- Recipe adapted from King Arthur Flour.
