Ingredients

Servings
  • 250 g (2 cups) of all-purpose flour, spooned into a measuring cup and leveled-off
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon non-Aluminum baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoons ground cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
  • ¾ cup avocado oil or (1-½ sticks) unsalted butter , softened
  • 1-½ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Unsulphured molasses such as Grandma's
  • 2 large eggs , room temperature
  • 1 (15-oz) canned 100% pure pumpkin puree
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract or clear vanilla

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 °F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Line with parchment paper or grease (two) 8 x 4-inch loaf pans with butter and dust with flour; alternatively, use a baking spray with flour in it. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cloves, ground cinnamon, allspice, ground ginger, and nutmeg; set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin purée, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and oil until well combined.
  4. Combine dry ingredients with wet ingredients, and fold until combined and there are no streaks of flour remaining (a few lumps are ok). Fold in any additional ingredients if using. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pans, and smooth the top with a spatula.
  5. Bake until golden brown and puffed in the center, and a toothpick tester inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, anywhere from 65 to 75 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool completely.
