This moist pumpkin bread recipe is so easy to make! It’s a one-bowl recipe that doesn’t require a mixer or any special ingredients or equipment.

And, most importantly, it tastes great! The pumpkin bread is moist without being greasy, and it’s nicely spiced. I like to serve thick slices of this pumpkin bread slathered with butter or spread with cream cheese for tasty fall treat.

How to make pumpkin bread

Here you’ll find step-by-step photos showing how to make pumpkin bread. The full recipe with ingredients is given below.

I recommend mixing the bread by hand rather than using a mixer. It’s easy, and it helps to avoid overmixing the batter.

Step 1: In a large bowl, whisk the sugar and oil together.

Step 2: Add the eggs and whisk in until combined.

Step 3: Whisk in the pumpkin puree until combined.

Step 4: Add the dry ingredients and whisk in just until combined. Don’t overmix. Overmixing will give you dense or heavy loaves.

Step 5: Pour the batter into the prepared pans.

Step 6: Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
