Ingredients

  • 2 cups sugar optional sub ½ cup for brown sugar
  • ⅔ cup butter
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 ½ cups canned pumpkin not pumpkin pie filling
  • ½ cup water
  • 2 ⅓ cups flour
  • 2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon cloves
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans with butter or non-stick spray.
  • Cream together: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar and butter for 1 minute.
  • Add the rest: Add the rest of the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in a denser texture.
  • Add extras (optional): If you’re adding walnuts, pecans, or chocolate chips, fold them into the batter now. 1/2 cup of add-ins recommended.
  • Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans. Bake for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool: Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
