Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 15 oz can 100% pure pumpkin, solid packed or pureed No pumpkin pie filling
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 2 tbsp roasted and salted pepitas (heaping tablespoons) Can use raw pepitas if desired

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Prepare two 9x5 loaf pans by spraying well with non-stick spray or greasing them.  May also use parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl combine the vegetable oil, white and brown sugar, pumpkin, eggs and vanilla.  Mix all ingredients until well-combined.
  • Add water to mixture and stir until water is completely incorporated.
  • In a separate medium-size bowl whisk flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger together.
  • Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture by adding a little at a time and stirring in the flour.  Be careful not to overmix the batter.  Stir just until the flour mixture is mixed in.
  • Pour the batter into the two prepared loaf pans.  Pans should be filled no more than 3/4 full.
  • Sprinkle the chopped pepitas evenly on top of the batter.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 60-70 minutes.  Bread is done when the top splits and a toothpick inserted into the middle of the loaf comes out clean.  Don't overbake.
  • Remove loaf pans to a cooling rack and let the bread cool for about 10 minutes.  Slide a knife around the edges of the pan and gently jiggle the pan over the cooling rack.  Bread should come out easily if pan is greased well.  If you use parchment paper you can lift the loaf out with the paper.
  • Let pumpkin bread cool completely before slicing. After bread is completely cooled you can store it in tinfoil or an airtight container.  This bread keeps well for up to 5 days at room temperature.  It will keep longer if kept in the refrigerator.
