Instructions

1 First, preheat the oven to 325°F and measure out all of the ingredients.
2 Next, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and
pumpkin pie spice in a glass mixing bowl.
3 Then, in another separate large glass mixing bowl, use the blending whisk to
combine the pumpkin puree, beaten egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until
completely combined.
4 Next, slowly pour half of the flour mixture into the wet ingredient mixture and
mix well.
5 Add the remaining dry ingredients and whisk the mixture well until all of the
ingredients are completely combined.
6 Next, completely coat the inside of the bread pan with the vegetable shortening.
Make sure to get all of the sides and corners.

I like to protect my hands from getting greasy in this step by covering up with
some disposable food-friendly gloves.
7 Then, use a silicone spatula to scrape all of the pumpkin bread batter into the
greased loaf pan and transfer to the preheated oven to bake for 50-60 minutes,
or until a toothpick stuck in the center comes out totally clean.

Start checking the pumpkin bread after 50 minutes, you don’t want to overcook
it.
8 When it’s ready, pull the baked pumpkin bread out of the oven and let it cool in
the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the baked bread from the pan to a cooling
rack.
9 Finally, let the pumpkin bread completely cool for about 1-2 hours before
cutting into it.

If you don’t let the bread cool completely then it will turn out doughy and
chunky when you go to cut into it.
