    Ultimate Pumpkin Bread

    Day 23 of 31 days of pumpkin and let me tell you, there are a lot of pumpkin bread recipes out there. This one is the best. I’m not lyin’. The difference between this one and some of the other good ones? It’s made with 100% real butter baby. Not canola oil, not vegetable oil. Butter. Melted. It’s got all the sugar and twice the fat, but if you’re going to eat a piece of Pumpkin Bread, why do it any other way?

    Since this recipe yields two loaves, I decided to throw 1/2 cup of chopped pecans into one of them. Love it. Until I tasted this Pumpkin Bread, I thought Starbucks® really had something. They got nothin’.

    Enjoy.

    • ½ tsp salt
    • 1 tsp baking soda
    • ½ tsp baking powder

    2. In a medium bowl, mix the flour, spices, salt, baking soda, and baking powder and set aside.
    3. In the bowl of a stand mixer with the wire whisk attached, dump in the sugar. Take the butter and put it in the microwave for about 30 seconds, so that it is half melted. Dump it into the sugar. Add the eggs. Cream these three ingredients together on medium speed for about 2 minutes or until fluffy. Add the pumpkin and combine well.
    4. In three batches, add the dry ingredients and mix gently until each batch is just incorporated. Scrape the sides between each batch.
    5. Pour half of the batter into a one of the prepared pans. Fold the pecans into the remaining batter and then pour it into the other prepared pan. Bake side-by-side for about one hour or until an inserted knife comes out clean the top is golden.

      3 cups of sugar? Are you kidding me? I cut it to two and it’s still very very sweet. I also cut the butter in half and used 50% more pumpkin and made it in muffin pan. Yumm. But i’d still cut back on sugar more.

      This is now my favorite pumpkin bread recipe. I put in chocolate chips and cut the sugar to 2 cups. It was perfect! Thanks!

      I made this yesterday and it was delicious! I used 1 c. brown sugar and 1/2 c. white sugar– for me, it was the right amount of sweetness. Yum!

      I am going to try this recipe but can someone tell me how to print these recipes without printing the additional twelve pages of blogs, advertisements and pictures?

      Thanks for remembering the environment! Print Recipe Only feature will save lots of trees! Your recipe….absolutly delicious!

      This was delicious! I cut down a little on the sugar and increased the spices. I baked the bread in two pie pans for about 45 minutes with sprinkled coarsely chopped pecans on top and they turned out beautifully. Thank you!

      I am baking this bread as I write….put 1/2 cup less sugar as I read others comments and agreed it probably did not need 3 c. Looking forward to eating it but am writing this saw I have not been able to print out the recipe….recipe only or any other way. Can you tell me what I might be doing wrong? S.

      This sounds like my long lost pumpkin bread recipe-can’t wait to try it. Definitely less sugar and I will substitute part of it with brown sugar.
      One thing though–ginger is a MUST to make pumpkin bread really fantastic!

      I made this and it was delicious !!! I seriously wanted to keep eating but I found it filling …as for the flavor ,texture & how I would rate it ? I would make it a million times over so thank you 😉 Delicious !!!!

      I only have enough pumpkin puree to make one loaf, so should I use two eggs or one? Or should I get out my calculus books and use 1 1/2 eggs?

      I found you as I was google searching for the “Ultimate Pumpkin Bread Recipe”. Every recipe I’ve used over the years has been too dry or has very little flavor. I been craving Starbucks Pumpkin Loaf as it’s moist and full of pumpkin flavor but at $2.50 per slice I think it’s prudent to make my own. I have your recipe in the oven as we speak. I’ll let you know how it turns out. I’m following you on GFC please stop by my site and follow back if you’re so inclined!

      Ooh. Ooh! I hope it works out. You can probably guess that the generous amounts of melted butter go a long way towards keeping it moist. Let me know how it turns out for you! Will definitely stop by your blog. – Amy (StreamingGourmet)

      I am about to bake this bread recipe but was curious to know the size of the pans to use… It looks like a LOT of batter! Should it fill to half of the pan? Higher? Lower?
