I have been trying to make pumpkin bread for years. I have eaten pumpkin bread for years. I have not always liked the pumpkin bread that I’ve been eating for years.

Well y’all, I’m happy to announce, that the goal has at last been attained. I have finally found a recipe that encompasses everything a classic loaf of pumpkin bread should be. It’s moist, tender, fluffy, not too dry, not too squishy, just the right amount of sweetness, and the perfect hint of spice. Thank goodness.

Suggestions:

  • Use a measuring cup to evenly distribute the bread batter between the two bread loaf pans. If your loaves are the same size they will cook at the same rate.
  • After the loaves have baked for 30 minutes, rotate them, so that they cook evenly.
  • If you don’t have heavy whipping cream on hand, you can replace it with water, milk, or half and half.

Improvements:

  • Toss chocolate chips into the dry ingredients before incorporating them into the wet ingredients. The flour mixture will keep the chocolate chips from sinking to the bottom of your bread loaves.
  • Replace the ground cinnamon in this recipe with pumpkin pie spice.
  • Add 1/2 teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg to this recipe.
  • Use almond extract in lieu of vanilla.
