Equipment

  • 1 oven
  • 1 mixer
  • 1 Loaf Pan

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree (unsweetened, no added spices)
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups gluten-free flour Bob's Red Mills 1 to 1
  • Cooking spray or Butter for greasing the loaf pan

Instructions

  • Begin by adding 1 cup of pure pumpkin puree to a large mixing bowl. To this, add 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Stir these ingredients together until well combined, allowing the spices to blend evenly with the pumpkin.
  • Add 1 cup of brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the pumpkin mixture. Stir until the mixture becomes smooth and well-blended. 
  • Once the mixture is smooth, add 3 eggs and 1/3 cup of melted butter. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well combined and the batter takes on a creamy consistency.
  • Gradually mix in the 1 1/2 cups of gluten-free flour. The batter will be thick, which is to be expected. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula to ensure that all of the flour is incorporated.
  • Lightly grease a loaf pan with either cooking spray or butter. Pour the prepared batter into the pan, smoothing it out to ensure an even bake.
  • Place the loaf pan in a preheated oven at 350°F. Bake for approximately 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
  • Allow the bread to cool for a few minutes in the pan before transferring it to a cooling rack.
  • Cool for 15 minutes
  • Serve and Enjoy!
