Gingery Pumpkin Bread

Breads

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Pumpkin is one of the first flavors signaling summer to fall, when it comes to baking.  As soon as pumpkins show up on porches, then pumpkin bread, muffins, and pies are on my baking list. Here’s why THIS is the pumpkin bread recipe to bake now!

  • Crystallized ginger punches up the cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg spice blend making it: ‘I want-another-slice’
  • The recipe uses one full 15-oz can of pumpkin puree – no leftover bit to use up.
  • The pumpkin adds plenty of moistness, so a skimpy 1/3 cup of oil makes a plenty moist bread. See note in recipe on substituting pumpkin for fat and egg.
  • No mixer needed, just stir together in a big bowl.

Pumpkin bread recipes can have family favorites – but I think there’s no debating this gingery bread is the best! I recently read this ‘Four Pumpkin Breads Comparison‘ by The Kitchn.  The winning recipe by Smitten Kitchen is a similar ingredient list to mine, but no crystallized ginger, and has a cinnamon sugar topping. A sweet idea, that inspired me to add a the ginger topping.

I originally created this pumpkin bread for Circulon Bakeware and it will always be in my repertoire of quick breads.  Walnuts and raisins add plenty of texture and interest, or mix it up with pecans, golden raisins, currants. Don’t skip the ginger topping, it’s an extra hit of ginger that will bring you back for more!

Gingery Pumpkin Bread

Crystallized ginger adds extra zing to this moist and easy to make quick bread.
Prep Time15 mins
Cook Time1 hr 10 mins
Servings: 16

Ingredients

  • 2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
  • 1 can (15 oz.) canned pumpkin not pumpkin pie filling
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed dark or light brown sugar use 1/2 cup if you like sweeter bread
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil or mild flavored olive oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
  • 3/4 cup natural or golden raisins
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped crystallized ginger, plus about 1 Tbsp for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Coat a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or cooking spray, or use a non-stick pan.
  • Stir together flour, cinamon, baking soda, baking powder, cloves and nutmeg in a bowl.
  • In a large bowl, whisk pumpkin, sugars, oil and eggs. Stir in flour mixture just until combined. Add nuts, raisins, and crystallized ginger.
  • Pour into prepared pan. Sprinkle batter with additional crystallized ginger. Bake 60-70 minutes until pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cover lightly with foil the last 10-15 minutes if the top is getting to brown. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then run a knife along edges and remove from pan, if desired, or leave in pan to cool. Cool completely on wire rack before slicing.

Notes

Libby's Pumpkin label
1/4c pumpkin = 1 egg
1/2c pumpkin = 1/2 cup oil
3/4c pumpkin = 1 cup butter
I have not tried all the substitutions but I would trust the Libby's test kitchen.
I originally created the recipe with 1/2 cup brown sugar, but 1/4 cup plus the granulated sugar is enough for my taste now.

Do your recipes turn out just like the photos? Do Do your recipes turn out just like the photos? Do you care or wonder what the developer did different? Or do you think it was fancy food styling and photography? There’s lots of reasons —like different pans, ingredients vary, your whipped eggs may turn out a little different than mine because they are fresher, older, different hens.... and on and on. I hope you don’t get discouraged when images aren’t the same as your results, and you can see by mine, even when it IS my recipe there are variations. The cake on the plate is gluten free, and didn’t bake as golden as the flour version. (And my oven is currrently on the fritz, believe it or not! 😂)

Sure happy to have this recipe in my repertoire. P Sure happy to have this recipe in my repertoire. Perfect after a day of baking, biking, gardening, and escaping into a good book on the sofa by the fire.  Recipe inspired by  @cheflauriegauguin. We spice it up with a smear of hoisin sauce on a Trader Joe’s Carb Savvy whole wheat tortilla to wrap it all up.
(If you want to know, the book I’m reading is The Knitting Circle by @annhood56)

Make these once and I’m pretty sure you’ll kee Make these once and I’m pretty sure you’ll keep raw cashews on-hand always. Or try with another nut, and let me know which you like best. My gift to you is the recipe below 🙂
Original recipe @leitesculinaria and @inagarten but I first enjoyed it from @mmfooddrink. 🙏 this recipe has been a gift that keeps giving 😂. 
Merry Christmas!

Rosemary Roasted Cashews
 
Heat oven to 350°F
 
Spread 1 pound raw whole cashews on a baking sheet (I usually line sheet with parchment). Bake for 15-20 minutes turning several times until toasted a deep golden brown.
 
Meanwhile, in a large bowl,  microwave 1 tablespoon salted butter until melted.
Stir in:
one rounded tablespoon very finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon packed dark or light brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
 
Add hot cashews to bowl as soon as they are toasted.  Stir and stir until cashews are cool and coated with herb mixture.  Stirring while the nuts are hot is the trick. Cool completely in the bowl.
