Notes

  • Make Ahead: You can make this recipe in advance and freeze the whole loaf or individual slices. When ready to serve, remove from the freezer and allow to come to room temperature on the counter. Frozen bread will last up to 2 months.
  • Hand mix the batter. This helps from over mixing which can leave you with a more dry dense cake.
  • Make sure you buy pure pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie mix.
  • Top browning too quickly? Lower the oven rack to the lower third position before preheating the oven. This will move the bread away from the heatsource, allowing it to cook fully without over cooking the top.
