Ingredients:
- 250g All-Purpose Flour
- 1 package (3.4 oz) Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Fine Sea Salt
- 2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 1 cup (225g) Pumpkin Purée
- 1/2 cup Neutral Oil
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 2 Large Eggs
- 1 tbsp Pure Vanilla Extract
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven. Set it to 350°F (175°C) and grease your 9x5 loaf pan thoroughly.
- Whisk dry ingredients. Combine the 250g flour, pudding mix, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices.
- Mix wet ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together the 1 cup pumpkin, 1/2 cup oil, 1 cup sugar, 2 eggs, and 1 tbsp vanilla. Whisk until the mixture is glossy and smooth.
- Combine the two. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry bowl.
- Fold gently. Using a spatula, fold the mixtures together until no white streaks of flour remain. Stop immediately once combined!
- Transfer to pan. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with your spatula.
- Bake the loaf. Place in the center of the oven for 1 hour. Bake until the top is mahogany and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Test for doneness. Check at the 50 minute mark to ensure the top isn't browning too quickly.
- Cool in pan. Let the bread sit in the pan for 10 minutes.
- Final cooling. Remove from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Wait until cool before slicing to ensure a clean cut.
