Hi Friends!
I created this recipe for Easy Pumpkin Bread almost exactly 4 years ago…while I was trying to keep my mind off the fact that my first baby was due any day (even though he wouldn't end up coming until almost 2 weeks after his due date). It's oh so easy and has become my go-to recipe over the years because you just need one bowl and a few simple ingredients.
I love making mini loaves because they're just so much more fun to eat. You can also give the second one away to a friend or stick it in the freezer!
Sometimes it's fun to eat it plain, but I also like to experiment with mix-ins like chocolate chips, fresh cranberries, and more. If you're looking for a fall recipe that's a bit more unique, be sure to try my Pumpkin Gingerbread Muffins!
But let's get back to this bread shall we? Whip up a batch today and enjoy some with your morning coffee all week!
Here's how you make it:
