Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

Nonstick vegetable oil spray
3 cups raw pumpkin seeds (pepitas; about 15 ounces)
3 1/2 cups unbleached all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 cups canned pure pumpkin (about 24 ounces)
1 cup sugar
1 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
3/4 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray six 5 3/4x3 1/4x2-inch baby loaf pans with nonstick spray. Spread seeds out on rimmed baking sheet. Roast until beginning to color, stirring twice, about 20 minutes. Cool seeds. Set aside 1/2 cup whole seeds for topping. Using on/off turns, coarsely grind remaining seeds in processor.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in medium bowl; whisk to blend. Mix in ground pumpkin seeds. Using electric mixer, beat pure pumpkin and both sugars in large bowl until blended. Gradually beat in oil, then eggs 1 at a time, then minced ginger. Stir in dry ingredients in 4 additions alternately with buttermilk in 3 additions. Divide batter among prepared pans. Sprinkle with reserved 1/2 cup whole pumpkin seeds.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my miniature pumpkin breads turned out really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the sugar.

I had trouble getting the miniature pumpkin breads to rise properly. They turned out a bit dense.

These pumpkin breads were a bit too dry for my taste, but the flavor was good.

I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin bread, but these miniature loaves were surprisingly good! They were moist and flavorful, and the cream cheese frosting was the perfect finishing touch.

These pumpkin breads are so cute and delicious! I love that they're made with whole wheat flour, which makes them a bit healthier than traditional pumpkin bread.

I made these miniature pumpkin breads for my kids' school bake sale, and they were a huge success! The kids loved them, and I even got some orders from parents who wanted to buy them for their families.

These miniature pumpkin breads were a hit at my Thanksgiving potluck! They were moist, flavorful, and the perfect size for individual servings. I'll definitely be making them again next year.
