Ingredients
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 15 oz can pumpkin puree
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325F. Grease and flour two 8 x 4-inch loaf pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk oil and sugar together. Mixture will look like wet sand.
- Whisk in eggs until well-combined.
- Add the pumpkin puree and whisk until well-combined.
- Whisk in the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until just combined. Overmixing the bread will cause it to be tough.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
- Bake for 40-60 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
- Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes, and then remove to a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.

Notes
- purée
- purée
- Oil: Or a similar neutral oil like canola oil or olive oil.
- Pumpkin purée: Be sure to buy pumpkin purée not pumpkin pie mix or pumpkin pie filling.
- Flour: To properly measure the flour, either weigh it or stir to break it up, lightly spoon into measuring cup, and then level.
- Greasing the pans: I like to use a cooking spray with flour in it like Baker's Joy.
