Notes

To ensure your pumpkin bread turns out extra moist, make sure not to overmix the batter after combining the wet and dry ingredients. Also, keep an eye on the bread during the last 10 minutes of baking to prevent overbaking, as oven temperatures can vary. If you want a bit more spice, feel free to add a pinch more cinnamon or nutmeg to suit your taste.
