Ingredients

Scale

15 oz pumpkin puree (canned, not pie mix)
3.5 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
4 large eggs, room temperature
2 tsp baking soda
1 tbsp pumpkin spice

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grease two 9×5 inch loaf pans with non-stick cooking spray.
Whisk the flour, sugar, baking soda, and pumpkin spice in a large mixing bowl.
Combine the pumpkin puree, oil, and eggs in a separate bowl until smooth.
Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a spatula until just combined.
Pour the thick batter evenly into the two prepared loaf pans.
Bake for 60 to 65 minutes until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool the loaves in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Measure flour using the spoon-and-level method to avoid heavy bread. Use room temperature eggs for better emulsification. Rotate pans halfway through baking for an even rise. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
