How do I make Pumpkin Bread?
Step by Step Photos Above
- Prepare Pan – Spray with nonstick cooking spray to make certain the bread doesn’t stick.
- Mix Ingredients – Combine pumpkin, egg, oil, and water in a bowl and then mix together all the dry ingredients.
- Smoke – Place in your smoker for 60-75 minutes at 350 degrees.
Can I double this recipe?
You can! Just double all the ingredients listed below and make an extra loaf. It’s as simple as that! And trust me on this one…doubling this recipe is a great idea because the first loaf is going to be gone before you realize it.
How do I know when quick bread is done?
The easiest way to tell that your quick pumpkin bread is done is to insert a toothpick into the middle of the bread once the timer is beeping that it’s finished cooking. If the toothpick comes out clean, it’s done. If it comes out covered in batter then you know that it needs to cook for a little bit longer.
How do I store Pumpkin Bread?
- Counter – Cover in plastic wrap or wrap in aluminum foil and have it set on the counter.
- Fridge – Put in a bag or container with a lid and have it sitting in your fridge.
- Freezer – Store in a freezer-proof container or bag and make certain that it’s sealed tight.
