Pour into a 9x5 inch buttered loaf pan and smooth the top. 3.Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree. Fresh pumpkin puree will give your bread a more intense pumpkin flavor than canned puree.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a loaf pan that is at least 9x5 inches. A smaller loaf pan will result in a bread that is too dense.
- Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking the bread will make it dry.
- Let the bread cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
