Brown Sugar Bread Machine Pumpkin Bread

Author: Jessica Haggard
Caramel-sweet from brown sugar, this bread machine pumpkin bread bakes on a quick bread cycle or a plain white bread setting. It even fits a 1 lb machine, so an old hand-me-down bread maker still earns its keep.

  • Whisk the flour, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Then, pour the dry mixture over the wet ingredients in the bread pan.

  • Insert the bread pan into the machine. Turn the machine on and select the QUICK BREAD or CAKE cycle. If your machine offers a crust color, choose light.

  • Once baked, carefully remove the bread pan and cool it on a wire rack. Leave the bread in the pan for about 10 minutes before tipping it out. Let it cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Use plain pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling. Canned or homemade both work.
  • Bake on the quick bread or cake cycle. Cycle length varies by machine. Rapid and express cycles are for yeast bread and will leave the center underbaked.
  • If your machine has no quick bread cycle, use the basic or white bread cycle. It takes about 3 to 4 hours and bakes the loaf through.
  • Fits a 1 lb bread machine pan or larger.
  • For add-ins, use ½ cup raisins, chopped nuts, or chocolate chips. Add them at the add-in beep. If your machine has no beep, add them once the first mixing has brought the batter together.
  • The loaf is done when a cake tester in the center comes out clean.

Serve: Serve warm or at room temperature with butter or cream cheese and a cup of chai or coffee.
Store: Wrap and keep at room temperature up to 3 days or refrigerated up to 7 days. Freeze wrapped slices up to 3 months.
