Mini Pumpkin Bread Recipe
This recipe makes four delicious loaves of pumpkin bread, ready for your favorite mix-ins! They are moist, perfectly spiced, and great for sharing.
Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 15 ounces pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling!)
- 1 ½ cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (10 ounces)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- ¾ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Spray 4 mini loaf pans with cooking spray. (If you worry about your loaves sticking, line the bottom of each pan with parchment paper.) Preheat your oven to 350°.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, eggs, pumpkin, sugar, and vanilla.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and pumpkin pie spice. Add to the wet ingredients and stir gently just until combined. (If desired, stir in the chocolate chips.)
- Divide the batter evenly between the pans. (I like to place my pans on a cookie sheet for easier removal from the oven.)
- Bake at 350° for 38-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with no wet batter. (Moist crumbs are fine.)
- Let the bread cool in the pans for 5-10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- My loaf pans are approximately 6 x 3 x 2 inches. If yours are smaller, you will need to decrease the baking time.
- Serving size is based on cutting each loaf into six slices.
- Leftover pumpkin bread can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for 4-5 days. You can also wrap it in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag or container. It can be frozen for 4-5 months.
- This bread is easily customized. Try butterscotch, white, or cinnamon chips instead of the chocolate. Or check out the recipe post for all the flavors we've tried!
