Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Notes

For best results, use room temperature ingredients to ensure even mixing. If you prefer a sweeter bread, consider adding a handful of chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter. To keep the bread moist, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
