Homemade Pumpkin Bread Recipe

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 sticks melted unsalted butter
• 1 cup packed light brown sugar
• ¾ cup sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• ¼ cup vegetable oil
• ¼ cup whole milk
• 3 cups pumpkin puree
• 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• pinch of sea salt
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup roughly chopped walnuts
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

• 1 Preheat the oven to 350°.
• 2 In a large bowl whisk together the butter and sugar until completely mixed.
• 3 Next, add in 1 egg at a time until completely mixed in.
• 4 Pour in the vanilla, oil, and milk until combined and then pour in the pumpkin
  puree and whisk them in.
• 5 Now, whisk in the baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until
  completely mixed.
• 6 Whisk in the flour until it is combined and then thoroughly fold in the walnuts
  and chocolate chips using a rubber spatula.
• 7 Divide the batter between 2 9×5 loaf pans that have been sprayed with nonstick
  spray.
• 8 This part is optional but mix together 1/2 cup of packed light brown sugar with
  1/2 cup of pepitas (pumpkin seeds) and evenly sprinkle it over the top of the
  bread loaves.
• 9 Bake at 350° for 75-80 minutes or until browned and cooked in the center. If you
  press a toothpick in the center, it should come out relatively clean. It should
  have an internal temperature of 198°.
• 10 Remove from the oven and set on a rack and cool for at least 20 minutes before
  slicing and serving.
